episode 6: Taking on a Leadership Role with ADHD
Can you take on a management or leadership position with ADHD? Absolutely! Not only that, the structure of management in many organizations can be the perfect fit for the way your ADHD brain works. But, it comes with a few caveats.
This week on the show, Nikki and Pete are talking about some of the considerations that go into moving into a new role. Do you tell your team? What’s it like working with an assistant? How do you build in the structures that feed your brain and inspire you creatively without creating angst in the people who report to you? Join us this week and get ready for your next big promotion!
