Friends

The best and most import hack of them all. Surround yourself with great friends that you care about and they care about you. Your friends are great for proofreading that application you are about to make or website you have built (like the number of my friends who proofread this one). Not only a proofreader, you can have some fun times laughing and making humour of your dyslexic works. They’re a good sounding board for understanding the issue non-dyslexics have with things and highlighting your positive traits.

Episode 59 – Coaching, and Neurodiversity Policies for Businesses with Mark Woodward

In this podcast episode, Matthew and Mark Woodward from neurobox discuss indirect support for individuals with dyslexia. The focus is on training middle managers in organizations to effectively lead people with neurodiversity, like dyslexia. This approach goes beyond legal compliance, delving into understanding the unique needs of neurodiverse individuals and providing appropriate support. Dyslexic thinking and problem-solving methods, often unconventional, are highlighted. Supportive leaders create an environment where neurodiverse team members thrive and feel understood, reducing the burden of hiding their challenges. Remaining curious and open-minded as leaders alleviates pressure and encourages collaboration, optimizing dyslexic strengths. Mark, a seasoned coach, shares his expertise in coaching and training individuals, teams, and managers to empower those with neurodiversities. Having similar traits to dyslexia himself, Mark’s dedication to supporting neurodiverse individuals stems from personal connection.
