#54 Neurodiversity: Hiring for Talent, Not Stereotypes with Daniel Smith from NeuroDiversAtSea

In this episode, we’re joined by Daniel Smith, founder of NeurodiversAtSea and a maritime professional with over a decade of experience in commercial shipping.


Daniel - who is autistic - shares his personal journey and explains why supporting neurodivergent crew is so important.


We discuss:

  • What neurodiversity really means in the maritime world

  • Common myths and misconceptions about neurodivergent individuals

  • The importance of creating space for different minds and approaches at sea


Whether you’re in recruitment, management, or working on deck, this is an insightful conversation that highlights the value of different ways of thinking and how we can all play a role in building a more inclusive yachting environment.
