In this episode of Somebody Gets Me, I am joined by Peter Mann, CEO & Founder of Virginia-based Oransi, a leading air purification company known for its efficient, intuitive, and reliable products.
Peter, proudly identifies as autistic and is on a mission to raise awareness about autism in order to improve the lives of others. He discusses the stigmas that come with being autistic and how society can work towards changing them, stressing the importance of embracing one's differences and focusing on their strengths to achieve success.
Peter touches on the challenges faced by the autistic community, specifically the high unemployment rate. He believes that the problem lies not with autistic individuals, but with the neurotypical hiring process that is not inclusive. The interview process is often designed for social extroverts, which makes it difficult for those who are not wired in that way to succeed. He offers support to those Neurodivergent individuals who need help navigating that aspect of the business world.
Peter encourages a mindset of diversity and inclusion to help solve complex problems and emphasizes the need to have awareness about oneself and society in order to set proper expectations. Throughout the episode, the speaker shares their experiences and insights gained from being a part of the autistic community, highlighting the importance of compassion and self-love. Ultimately, the episode serves as a call to action for society to be more accepting and accommodating of those who are different than the historically perceived norm.
