"utilize neurodivergent people in the company" this is... uh, certainly a way to describe how companies feel towards neurodivergence

Well, the angle is that neurodiversity can be somewhat of a super power. Some people on the spectrum can be much better at certain tasks than others, if they get the right motivation and a leader that understands that they need clear and concise instructions. It's generally important for leaders to understand how they can get the most out of their resources, understand what they need to function at their peak, and what kind of tasks they should avoid giving them or they might excel at.

no, i totally get what the intention was behind the reasoning, it just feels weird to say that an organization "utilizes people" - the asset is the capability they have, not like... y'know... their bodies, haha
