Unmasking at Work: Designing Spaces Where Neurodivergent Adults Can Be Real

(Plus Neuro Nugget spotlight: Overcoming Stigma and Unlocking Strengths at Work)

A Divergent Discussion with Romina Massa

Masking at work is often treated like “professionalism.”
But for neurodivergent adults, masking can mean constant self-monitoring, scripting, suppressing needs, and performing a version of yourself that feels acceptable, not real.

In this Divergent Discussion, Romina Massa explores what changes when neurodivergent adults are able to unmask safely at work and how that shift impacts creativity, communication, relationships, and long-term sustainability.

This isn’t just about “being yourself.” It’s about designing workplaces where people don’t burn out just to belong.

What we’ll cover

In this 60-minute conversation, we’ll unpack:

What masking looks like in professional environments (including the “high-functioning” myth)
What actually happens when neurodivergent adults unmask at work — the real outcomes
How unmasking changes creativity, collaboration, and communication
The difference between individual adjustments vs systemic workplace shifts
Practical strategies for neurodivergent people navigating disclosure, boundaries, and energy
What managers and organisations can do to create psychologically safe, neuroaffirming workplaces

We’ll also highlight Romina’s Neuro Nugget series:
“Overcoming Stigma and Unlocking Strengths at Work” — micro-learning for neurodivergent adults and workplaces ready to move beyond inclusion theatre and into real change.

Who this is for
