What happens when inclusion runs on trust instead of control?

In this episode, I explore what flying from Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport with my autistic son revealed about how trust, flexibility, and how universal design can turn inclusion from a set of exceptions into a reliable system.

• My FIT cultural model that turns inclusion from a reaction into a system.
• Why the old “accommodations-only” model no longer works in neurodiverse workplaces.
• The story of a flight, a Pikachu cuddly toy, and an airport that quietly got autism-inclusion right.
• Howleadership using Freedom within a Framework lets leaders design cultures that enable difference.

🎧 Listen to learn how universal design principles inspired by autism, ADHD, and dyslexia can create workplaces where everyone thrives.

And learn how the same principles - clarity, fairness, and shared responsibility - help teams and organizations move beyond accommodations-only enablement of neurodivergence toward sustainable, neuro-inclusive cultures: https://www.lisacolledgeconsulting.com/inside-view/techs-autism-at-work-programs-why-these-pioneering-programs-must-evolve

A team that runs on trust instead of control feels a lot better, for everyone - and it performs better too
