In this episode of Founders Future, with host Olivia Sammons, we sit down with Charlie Ferriman, the co-founder of Neurodiversity Global. Charlie shares his powerful personal journey, from being diagnosed with ADHD at 17 and being told he would "never amount to anything" to running a hostel in Thailand and discovering a passion for understanding different minds. This lived experience, combined with the desire to build a better future for his neurodivergent younger brother, a cancer survivor, was the catalyst for starting a family-run business with his father. Their mission is to move beyond awareness and into actionable change, helping individuals stop masking and embrace their true selves.

Charlie details Neurodiversity Global's core services, which include tailored workshops for awareness, management, leadership, and champions within corporations. He emphasizes their unique, balanced approach that focuses not only on support for the neurodivergent 20% but also on the business ROI, accountability, and creating inclusive environments for everyone. He also discusses the challenges of pioneering in a new market, their effective organic growth strategies, and exciting future plans, including a significant partnership and potential global expansion with existing clients.
