Abstract

Neurodiversity, encompassing conditions like autism, ADHD, and dyslexia, offers a rich tapestry of unique talents often overlooked in traditional workplace settings. This article explores the strategic advantages of embracing neurodiversity in the modern workforce, with a particular focus on the strengths ADHD individuals bring to the table. By shifting perceptions to view neurodivergent traits as assets rather than limitations, organizations can unlock new avenues of innovation, efficiency, and success. Through case studies and practical strategies, this paper highlights the transformative potential of neurodiverse talent and advocates for creating inclusive environments that celebrate cognitive diversity.
