A researcher, author and consultant with lived experience of autism, Dr Wenn Lawson has a unique vantage point when it comes to finding solutions to creating more inclusive workplaces. He says his work as a trained psychologist has been crucial in his understanding of how to effectively communicate the challenges of living with autism and its diverse presentations - but also some of the solutions. During the month of April, advocates are drawing attention to the removal barriers preventing autistic people from full and equal participation in society. In this episode of Weekend One on One, Wenn Lawson spoke with Biwa Kwan about his decades of work in bridging what he calls the double empathy gap.
