ADHDers have spectacular skills to offer any organisation they work for, or in their own self-employment.
But as they often struggle with tasks that others perceive as easy, or have trouble with their emotional regulation at work, they need two things:

✓ those around them to appreciate their difference as a positive benefit
Individual, group and corporate training helps everyone achieve their potential.
Our monthly training schedule can be booked via our Eventbrite account so please follow the account and see what’s coming up next!
