It’s About Time: Supporting Neurodivergent Employees with Time Management in the Workplace

Competency:

Personal/Interpersonal, and Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

Description:

The term “neurodiversity” refers to the infinite variation in brain functioning that leads to differences in thinking, attention, memory, and communication. Some neurodivergent individuals have differences in executive functioning skills like time management, and as a result, need different support and accommodations in the workplace. In this presentation, learn about time management from a neurodivergent lens. Whether you are neurodivergent or you are a supervisor to someone who is, this webinar will provide concrete strategies to support time management in the workplace.

Learning Objectives:

Learn why neurodivergent individuals, such as people with Autism and ADHD, have differences in time management skills
Understand key concepts, such as tachyosychia, time blindness, and executive functioning
Gain 6-8 concrete strategies to support and make accommodations for neurodivergent individuals with time management in the workplace
Learn about 3-5 tools that neurodivergent individuals can use in the workplace to support effective time management
