Description

For many of us, the standard workday is a constant stream of alerts: messages on the team group chat, texts from your child’s daycare, emails from your boss, co-workers popping by to chat in person. It’s enough to set even the most focused professional on edge. When Alex Gilbert, an expert in neurodiversity advocacy for working adults, started Cape-Able Consulting, she intended to help put an end to masking at the office. She helps individuals and companies create environments where employees don’t have to pretend that hectic, nonstop-notification work environment is actually working for them. You don’t need a diagnosis to feel overstimulated on the job or to put Alex’s tips into action to help improve your workplace—for yourself and everyone around you. Put an end to white-knuckling your way through the workday with Alex’s insights: Why work is even harder for neurodiverse women; The parallels between neurodiversity and high-achieving personalities; How implementing the right AI tools in the workplace can level the playing field for every employee; Whether or not you need to disclose your diagnosis as you advocate for your needs.
