What if the key to unlocking potential in the workplace lies in embracing neurodiversity?We are joined in this episode by Dr. Annalisa, the founder of Atom Consulting (https://atomconsulting.com.au/), a company dedicated to helping water utilities manage their risks, particularly in water quality. With a rich background in consulting and a personal journey through neurodiversity, Annalisa has become a passionate advocate for individuals with learning differences. After her elder son was diagnosed with autism, she pursued her own diagnosis of ADHD in her 40s, leading her to a deeper understanding of neurodiversity. Annalisa's commitment to inclusivity in the workplace is evident in her efforts to bridge the gap between neurodiverse talent and the skills shortage in the water sector.In this episode, we discuss significant topics such as the challenges and triumphs of adult diagnoses, the importance of creating inclusive environments for neurodivergent individuals, and practical strategies for leaders to support their teams. Annalisa shares her personal experiences with ADHD and dyslexia, the tools she has developed to navigate her professional life, and her vision for a more inclusive workplace.A Note From Our Director and Podcast Host:I'm Dr. Shae Wissell, and you have been listening to the Dear Dyslexia Podcast.
