 “neurodiversity” refers to the infinite variation in brain functioning 
 that leads to differences in thinking\, attention\, memory\, and 
 communication. Some neurodivergent individuals have differences in 
 executive functioning skills like time management\, and as a result\, need

 is\, this webinar will provide concrete strategies to support time 
 management in the workplace. \n\n\n\n\n\nLearning Outcomes\n\nAs a result 
 of this program\, attendees will:\n\n\n	Learn why neurodivergent 
 individuals\, such as people with Autism and ADHD\, have differences in 
 time management skills\n	Understand key concepts\, such as tachyosychia\, 
 time blindness\, and executive functioning \n	Gain 6-8 concrete strategies
