Most leadership advice tells you to fit in. Play it safe. Follow the mold if you want to be respected.
In this episode, Dianne A. Allen challenges that. For neurodivergent executives and founders, hiding who you are isn’t just tiring, it weakens your leadership. Instead of forcing yourself into old systems, this conversation shows how masking drains your influence and how your vision, intensity, systems thinking, and pattern recognition can be your strongest assets.
The future belongs to leaders who stop masking and start leading on their own terms. Watch the full episode of the Someone Gets Me Podcast – Identity is a Leadership Strategy.
