A zsűri elismerése

If people living with the Asperger syndrome are well accepted by information technology companies as certified software testers, then it is not their shortcomings that are in focus – but their special capabilities originating from their illness. Personality traits which, at first view, exclude them from working life then become advantages. And this holds not only for the concrete work itself, but also for the cohesion and efficiency of the teams they are part of. After initial irritation, the special directness of people living with a developmental disorder of the autism spectrum apparently leads to heightened awareness and improved attentiveness of all involved. Innovation thus works.
