We show you where they are, and what you’re leaving on the table

Here's what changes when we help you remove those obstacles

Your managers lead confidently

They want to do the right thing, but haven’t yet got the skills to know how.

Managers who don't have the right tools don't stop managing, they just manage badly and leave HR responsible. When they understand how to work with and support different brains, they gain confidence, build trust and make better decisions. That's stronger teams, fewer escalations, avoidable conversations and managers who handle things before HR has to.

Your best people stop leaving

Turnover isn't inevitable. It's what the wrong environment does, quietly.

Most workplaces were built around one way of thinking and working, not maliciously, it was just the default and we haven’t caught up.
When structures, processes, and culture are designed with flexibility to accommodate different brains, you catch the friction points before they become a resignation letter, a WorkCover claim, or a Glassdoor review.

Your organisation gets smarter

Diverse thinking doesn't eventuate if the environment dilutes it down first.

The business case for cognitive diversity is real, but it only works if people feel as though it is genuinely welcome. When the environment stops demanding uniform ways to communicate, process, and perform the same way, you get higher performing teams, better decisions, faster problem-solving, and ideas your competitors don't have.

Most psychosocial risk assessments miss cognitive, and sensory hazards because they're designed for neurotypical brains

We identify the factors eroding psychological safety, then give you pragmatic frameworks that work for different brains.

Our audits, trainings and frameworks are organisation-specific and approachable, not abstract and theoretical.

About Liani

Oh hello! It’s great to see you here. I’m Liani, I’m an autistic ADHDer and I founded The Spiky Bureau.

I kept watching organisations (unknowingly) repeat the same mistakes. Not trying to be hostile, but not seeing the lost opportunity in not trying to do anything different to accommodate neurodivergent folks.

Neurodivergent people were bearing the cost of that knowledge gap and I knew I could help close it.

On what grounds? The professional expertise, the good, bad and ugly lived experience and a whole lot of ‘how hard can it be’ mindset.
