Neurospicy: ADHD as a Competitive Advantage
Byte Size (BEGINNER level)
Room 2
I picked a career that would enable me to thrive. This meant finding a job that would keep me on my toes and would make the best of my unique brain wiring. Working in tech is a great option for me and plenty others. I'd like to talk about how I embraced hyperfocus, unusual problem-solving and have leveraged ADHD as a substantial competitive advantage. Bottom line: I'd like to share some tips for folks with ADHD and some key processes to collaborate with team members that may be ADHD. This talk could also maybe trigger a lightbulb moment (Oh! I may have ADHD).
