More than 5% of adults have Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). Most don’t know it. Neuro-diverse employees are sought after for their creativity and out-of-the-box thinking. But ADHD employees bring both brilliance and challenges. Unmanaged, ADHD’s symptoms include inattention, disorganization, and poor time management. These create problems at work for both employers and employees.
But under the right conditions, these employees are energetic and creative. Identifying ADHD is the first step to managing it. Employers, managers or HR professionals must be aware of ADHD.
Employees with ADHD are loyal to organizations that help unleash their potential. Recognize the signs. Learn to work with people who have ADHD. Help them manage their ADHD and succeed. You’ll have grateful, skilled, loyal employees.
Typical Audience: Employers, managers, HR professionals and adults with ADHD.

ADHD can give entrepreneurs an advantage – so much so that I call them “Creative Geniuses.” ADHD characteristics are “superpowers” for entrepreneurs. But becoming an entrepreneur does not guarantee success. Unless you address your challenges, even your strengths won’t bring you the success you’re hoping for. If you’re struggling with inattention, how will you focus on work? It you have difficulty getting organized, how can you keep all the “balls in the air?” If you can’t get started on important projects how can you deliver on your brilliant ideas?
Research shows entrepreneurs with ADHD are better-suited to business-building than their neurotypical peers. There’s a clear path every ADHD entrepreneur must follow. In this presentation, Linda reveals the Creative Genius entrepreneur’s roadmap. Discover the three essential stages of your rise to success. Where are you on your journey from chaos and overwhelm to fulfilment and profit?
Typical Audience: Creative Genius entrepreneurs, professionals and executives. Entrepreneur groups and networking organizations.
