Embracing neurodiversity and different ways of thinking, more often than not leads to innovative and successful organisations. One simple clue to understanding your own thinking style is to ask whether you’re “drama club” or “chess club”.
The "chess club" represents an analytical approach to problem-solving, while "drama club" is about big picture and storytelling. Implementing both thinking styles makes for a more balanced and effective approach to leadership and decision-making.
