– More than a few times, my non-linear and intuitive thought process has contributed to fast and innovative decision making. I need to see things from ‘above’ and make them simple – this often helps to highlight the solution to the issue.
– at peak times in projects or on tight deadlines, I often find myself extremely focused. I can go for days at a time with little sleep or food, and I always get the task across the line when it counts.– my excited approach can be an attractive quality for teams. Energy is a strong driver at the start of a program. As the work becomes more routine and mundane, I work hard to keep the energy visible for the team and for my own motivation.– that dopamine craving does drive risk-taking behavior.
Like everyone else, I have gaps. These “areas for development” are often the flipside of my strengths:I used to admit to terrible attention to detail. That’s not quite true. I can be very, very attentive to detail when I’m in a state of focus. The challenge is that I can’t always control when that focus comes and I can be highly inconsistent. Consistently inconsistent, as they say!I recently blanked on the name one of own of my direct team members.
Enjoy and leverage your talents and find ways to fill the gaps that my ‘dark side’ leaves. In my career, I’ve been lucky enough to build teams and hire direct reports who can mitigate my weaknesses – whether it’s bringing consistency and attention to detail, logical and linear thinking, or more structure.
Those of us with ADHD don’t succeed despite our condition, we succeed by leveraging its unique characteristics.
