At Premier Personnel, in collaboration with Meticulon Consulting, we are dedicated to gaining a deeper understanding of the evolving business landscape across Manitoba. Our focus is to identify the successes and challenges businesses face, particularly in recruiting and retaining neurodiverse talent. We invite you to join this meaningful initiative, helping shape a more inclusive and forward-thinking business environment.  

Recent statistics highlight that 29.2% of Manitobans identify as having a disability.  

In today’s competitive hiring market, the ability to recognize and engage with diverse talent pools has never been more critical. By harnessing the unique skills and perspectives of individuals with diverse abilities, businesses can not only foster a richer workplace culture but also fuel innovation and sustained growth.  

Enter the Neuroinclusion Maturity Assessment (NIMA), powered by Auticon, leaders in neuroinclusion and cultural transformation. This innovative tool is designed to enhance recruitment and retention strategies, ensuring your organization is fully equipped to welcome diverse talent.  

Through our federally funded initiative, we are excited to offer NIMA at no cost to businesses until March 1, 2025. 

The NIMA survey takes about 15 minutes to complete, and the results are presented to businesses at the quarter-mark of the ongoing year. It provides insightful, anonymous feedback and the results are aggregated into a detailed maturity grid, giving your company a clear understanding of its strengths and opportunities for growth. With this analysis, we provide you with personalized recommendations to support your organization’s ongoing development.  

By participating, in addition to receiving a comprehensive report, you will also join a network of businesses committed to inclusivity. Along with access to ongoing support and training, your organization will be well positioned to stay ahead of industry standards. You, too, can be a part of this engaging initiative and contribute to shaping your local business environment.
