Octavius Harris is the visionary founder and CEO of DiverseMind, an innovative corporate coaching platform that empowers businesses to embrace and leverage cognitive diversity.

Through his book and platform, he aims to educate and inspire leaders to build more compassionate and innovative organizations that benefit from the richness of diverse minds.
