isis fabian

is a neurodivergent speaker, researcher, and ICF-certified coach championing neurodiversity as the engine of humanity’s next leap forward.

Isis, who is autistic, has partnered with organizations ranging from 30 to 30,000 employees and led mixed-methods research on workplace experience across global markets and diverse topics, most recently authoring The Neuroinclusion Imperative: Unlocking Untapped Potential. Their work is grounded in a commitment to nuance, liberation, and an insistence on subverting “business as usual” to illuminate the problem-solving capacities and unseen strengths of those on the margins—our most vital resource for a radically transformed future.

An independent consultant and fellow at Coqual’s Global Lab for Better Work Futures, Isis brings deep expertise in identity, intersectionality, and inclusive culture with a focus on neurodiversity and divergent thinking. Isis is known for translating complexity into insight—helping individuals and institutions navigate identity, power, and culture with clarity and compassion.

Over more than a decade, Isis has led and contributed to nationally representative, mixed-methods research across the U.S. and global markets including Canada, Mexico, Brazil, the UK, Germany, Poland, India, Hong Kong, and Japan. Their work has explored a wide range of equity-focused issues, from implicit bias, microaggressions, and intergenerational dynamics to mentorship, inclusion, and perspectives outside of mainstream economic and cultural discourse.

Isis identifies as white, agender, neurodivergent, and Buddhist, traits which heavily inform their perspective and approach to guiding personal transformation that unleashes the full spectrum of human potential. Recognizing the myriad interrelated challenges facing humanity today, Isis draws on a lifelong spiritual practice of lucid dream work and meditation to provide a grounding energy for those questioning long-held assumptions about the nature of being and their place in an increasingly precarious world. Leveraging the gifts of neurodiversity and the power of divergent thinking, Isis meets people of all backgrounds where they are, inviting them to step outside the limitations of their conditioning, look at the roots of their fears and judgments, and emerge with greater internal harmony, capacity, and motivation to breathe life into a brighter future for both the individual and the collective.

This foundation of nuanced intersectional awareness across identity groups and industries, along with my own experience being agender and neurodivergent, guides how I build accessible content on complex topics, coach people from historically advantaged and marginalized groups, facilitate conversations about identity and cultural awareness, interpret data and synthesize themes, and work to co-create a collective future that delivers freedom and abundance for all.
