We lay out how ADHD shows up at work—mismanagement of our time, poor working memory, disappointing performance, irritability, impulsivity—and how falling behind often feels like a personal failing.
Once you identify which behaviors are ADHD-related, you know what you can change and figure out how to approach it.
• time blindness, time optimism, and missed deadlines
• meeting pitfalls and memory overload
• slow writing, perfectionism and bottlenecks
• environmental barriers
secrecy, shame, and burnout
• irritability, impulsivity and reputation risks
• reframing strengths to land as value
• next steps and where to learn more
Have I missed something that is keeping you from doing your best at work?
