SUCCESS, TOGETHER

Hi, I'm Jonathan Laloz

MISSION-DRIVEN

Over the past 2 decades, Jonathan has served in the small business, corporate and government sectors, and has experienced first-hand both the benefits and hardships of living with autism.

Jonathan is an expert in the field of autism employment and Australian keynote speaker and has spent two decades overcoming many hardships associated with being autistic. This has led him to a career where he helps neurodiverse individuals thrive in the workplace and organisations benefit from the competitive advantages that neurodivergent minds offer.

In 2019 Jonathan started Self Plus Plus where he leads a team of support workers and coaches to help autistic people gain a better quality of life. In this role, he and his team have trained and coached dozens of people to develop the skills and confidence required to succeed in the workplace.

Jonathan enjoys sharing his secrets on how the neurodivergent mind functions that have helped dozens of organisations achieve success they never thought possible. Jonathan has a Master of Information Technology in Business Informatics where his research focused on using IT to deliver organisational benefits, which has been adapted to the field of neurodiversity in his current role.
