CRC Colloquium Series: Working While Autistic: Communication, Disclosure, and Inclusion in the Workplace

COM 209, 640 Commonwealth Ave.

PRESENTER: April Yue, Ph.D; Assistant Professor, Public Relations

What does it mean to navigate the workplace when everyday communication norms are not designed with autistic employees in mind? This lecture explores how autistic employees experience disclosure, workplace relationships, accommodation, belonging, and well-being. It also considers how supervisors, coworkers, and organizations can move beyond good intentions to create communication practices that are genuinely inclusive, supportive, and responsive.
