Synthèse

Business schools worldwide are reassessing their social purpose while increasingly recognizing that neurodivergence—including autism, ADHD, and dyslexia—affects a significant portion of the population, especially younger generations. Current systems often disadvantage neurodivergent learners and staff by privileging narrow forms of interaction while placing adaptation burdens solely on neurodivergent individuals.

This special issue reimagines how business schools can become genuinely neuroinclusive environments. Rather than focusing on accommodations alone, it invites contributions examining how neurodiversity enriches learning and knowledge creation. The call welcomes conceptual and empirical work from diverse theoretical perspectives and global contexts, particularly from scholars in disability studies, inclusive education, and critical management studies.
