ADHD in the Workplace: How to Get Promoted Without Burning Out
Description
If you’ve ever thought, I work so hard—why am I not getting ahead? or How do I actually position myself for a promotion without working myself into the ground?—this episode is for you.
Skye sits down with career strategist and late-diagnosed ADHDer Kendall Berg to break down what it really takes to succeed in corporate spaces with ADHD. We’re pulling apart the real research behind career growth, burnout, and how to make your ADHD strengths work for you.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why “just work harder” is bad career advice (and what to do instead)
- How executives actually decide who gets promoted (hint: it’s not just about performance)
- The networking strategy that ADHD professionals need to stay on leadership’s radar
- How to position yourself for a promotion—even if you’ve struggled with consistency
Want to move up in your career without sacrificing your mental health? This episode is a must-listen.
