Rondanini Publishing presents
WIREDDIFFERENTLY
A field guide to neurodivergence at work
The twelve problems that actually happen in demanding jobs, the strategies that hold up under pressure, and the places a different brain quietly wins. Written from inside the building. Every claim sourced.
Inside the guide
Practical, not theoretical
Time blindness. Task initiation. Sensory overload. Meetings. Masking. Interruptions. Working memory. Prioritisation under fire. Unwritten rules. The sprint-and-crash cycle. Each of the twelve problems gets the same treatment: what it feels like from the inside, why it happens — with the research cited — what works if it's you, and what works if you manage someone living it.
Beyond the twelve: the evidence for where this wiring excels, a disclosure and accommodations framework built on the Job Accommodation Network's employer cost data, a manager's playbook of ten near-zero-cost adjustments, and word-for-word scripts for the awkward moments. No wellness clichés. No homework.
Written for both readers at once: neurodivergent professionals — diagnosed, self-suspected, or just tired in a way colleagues don't seem to be — and the people who manage and work alongside them.
Accessible by design — and tested
A guide about accommodating different brains, built to accommodate different readers
Every edition in this bundle was built for accessibility from the start, then put through the industry's standard checkers. Here is exactly what was tested and what passed:
Reflowable EPUB — validated with Ace by DAISY
Checked with Ace by DAISY (version 1.4.6), the DAISY Consortium's accessibility checker for EPUB, with zero violations. Semantic headings and lists, a fully navigable table of contents, and complete accessibility metadata. Conforms to EPUB Accessibility 1.1 at WCAG 2.1 Level AA, self-certified by Rondanini Publishing. Change the font, size, spacing and colours in any standard reading app.
Screen Reader Edition — tagged PDF, checked with PAC
Generated as a tagged PDF (PDF/UA-1) — over 2,000 structure tags, logical reading order, document language, title metadata and bookmarks — and checked with PAC, the PDF Accessibility Checker, against WCAG's machine-testable criteria, including the colour-contrast checks. Navigate by heading straight to any of the twelve problems.
Low-Stimulation Large-Print Edition
17.5-point sans-serif text, single column, generous line spacing, left-aligned, black on white, minimal visual noise, and every chapter starting on a fresh page. Prints cleanly in black and white. This is the full original text — nothing simplified, nothing cut.
Audio Edition — narrated by David Axtell
Around 70 minutes in 18 chapter tracks, one per problem, so you can jump straight to "Masking" or "Time blindness" — whichever is currently on fire.
Being honest about what testing means: automated checkers cover the machine-testable criteria, and we review structure and navigation by hand on top. If you use assistive technology and find anything that doesn't work, tell us — we will fix it and reissue your files. Alternative formats are never charged as a premium. If you need a format we haven't made, contact Rondanini Publishing and we'll do our best.
