Downloadable PDF of this infographic and Interactive Decision Tree. The Interactive Decision Tree presents each question, choice, and decision per page.

NOTE: This infographic is a better match for individuals who are in the workplace right now, in at least young adulthood, learning about the workplace after college. 

This is not a one-size-fits all approach decision tree. It is realistic, does not push you to disclose one way or another, and should be used as guiding questions as you determine what your decision will be. You are the one who knows your workplace best!

We are happy to hear your feedback as we build out more of these decision trees!

It's pretty useful, but could be improved.

This is a very useful PDF for teaching (or simply reminding) Autistic adults about the right motivations for disclosing information to others at work. However, there are two minor problems with this chart.

First, this chart is visually complex. Pathways between responses can get very confusing to navigate through at a glance. There are looping paths that are difficult to follow without focusing intently. The colors can be confusing without a color key reference. This factor may discourage users frequently using this chart, which defeats the purpose.

Second, the language level used is a bit... too "awkwardly in-between" for a large amount of individuals who might want to use it?

On one hand, It's oversimplified for those with post-high school education. To this group, the language is rather vague (Some examples: "What exactly qualifies as nosiness and immaturity?", "What does 'it will just be different' refer to?", and "Must we refer to inconvenient coworkers as bad apples?") The oversimplification may feel as if it is "pandering downwards".

On the otherhand, Autistic high schoolers will probably be confused by at least one of the following terms: reservation, HR, or confidentiality. These terms are typically only learned after somebody has some level of work experience.

The language level used here is best suited to either a freshman in college or a high school graduate with some previous experience. This may not sound like a big deal to most allists, who commonly experience this stage in their lives, but the reality is that many on the spectrum either quickly skip past this stage during their education or simply never reach it in the first place. This seems like a massive oversight for a product designed specifically for Autistic adults.

For anyone who is curious about a solution, perhaps making 3 versions would solve the problem? There can be one for college graduates, the current one as a "catch all" between groups, and a simplified version. That would cover the majority of people looking to use this PDF!

Only to the people who are necessary for your growth. The world is still fill with a lot of prejudging which can hamper your optimal potential growth.

Hi Sonia,
In this particular decision tree, we do believe we have this type of question built in around trusting others at the workplace (3rd question). We do not ignore the prejudging and systemic biases and issues that are built into the workplace. Please let us know about anything specific we may have missed. Perhaps identifying allies is another type of decision tree or guide we can create.

Great for adults!

Love this and shared this site with friends! I do wish you had 2 versions - this one and one with simpler language.
