Who indeed

Who is Ruth-Ellen?

Ruth-Ellen is neurodivergent. A CMI professional consultant in training, coach, trainer plus holistic practitioner.

After being diagnosed with dyslexia and dyspraxia in her 30's and then setting up the community dyslexic success she heard the same story again and again... that talented people couldn't find sustainable employment.

Ruth-Ellen now drives awareness, acceptance, and most importantly career advancement for all. She is an international keynote speaker on intersectional inclusion.

I believe that we should be celebrated for our differences, not just tolerated

here's what I want you to really take away

Why I am so passionate about RSD

Before anyone acknowledges my neurodiverse traits, they see me as an 'opinionated' sometimes 'quiet' black woman.

 They may later find out I am a single mother of a person 'living with autism' from a southeast London council estate 

Here's my point, my identity is made of many pieces just like the people that you want to help feel accepted for thinking different. 

Too often, people with various identities are seen as just their visible/declared identities instead of being seen as a whole people. 

 This isn't right. We need to see people for who they are, not just the labels that society gives them.

Let's talk about the whole person. Let's acknowledge their neurodiverse traits and also celebrate the other parts of their identity. Only then will we be able to help them feel accepted and understood.

We had a superb workshop with Ruth-Ellen Danquah Really practical session on creating a psychological safe space for everyone. Reminded me to always ask people about how and why they’ve approached something in the way they have, and not just focus on the output. Highly recommend it! Thank you Ruth.


Deputy Managing Director and Head of Health

Ridiculously passionate’ is a phrase that comes to mind when I think about Ruth-Ellen.

I have worked with Ruth-Ellen as a volunteer since 2012. When we first met I was impressed by the way she gathered 80 people for first the dyslexic success event at Google Campus. Since then we have run around 50 events together for a peer to peer network which targets neurodivergent people developing their career.

Ruth-Ellen’s ability to deliver engaging workshops and facilitate events has ensured the network has made a difference to attendees. Frequently she has been able to unpick challenging issues in a way is both inspiring and result in the achievement of positive change. One of Ruth-Ellen’s qualities is that she strives to ensure everyone gains value out of the meetings. Ruth Ellen is a first-class marketing professional and leader. Any business would be lucky to have her on their team
