October, who knew so much would be going on as we get closer to the year end!

03/10/2024



Instead of making New Year Resolutions, why not seize the day today!

Many workplaces will have multiple events running throughout October. These can be epic or intimate depending on the organisation.

Until today, I did not realise October was also ADHD Awareness month – and I’m an ADHD Coach, amongst other things!

Raising awareness of neurodivergency in your workplace – what it might look like, what you might do – is a pivitol starting point to ensure both mind operating types in your business – neurotypical and neurodivergent – feel included enhancing emotional safety at work.

To those on the fringes, symptoms can look like behaviours. Equally, those who are neurodivergent may not even realise it having masked all their life.

1:1 ADHD Coaching identifies how ADHD shows up for an individual and enables them to explore strategies to tame it.

Employers can provide this as part of their reasonable adjustments – keeping their awesome talent in their business.

In addition to the amazing events you have planned for October – is ADHD Awareness for Managers and How to be an Ally to an ADHD Colleague part of your plan?

I’ve delivered both these awareness programmes to some of the employers taking part in Growing Talent receiving excellent feedback. This will enhance the journey for anyone who is neurodivergent and gives managers and teams confidence in supporting their neurodivergent colleagues.

So have you got October covered in your workplace?
