Course details

According to the United Nations, roughly 15 percent of the world’s population is dyslexic. That’s one billion dyslexic thinkers living and working around the globe. While many people would characterize this as a setback, especially when it comes to work, it’s critically important to realign your perspective and recognize the unique gifts of dyslexic thinking in the workplace.

In this course, join Kate Griggs, best-author and the founder and CEO of Made By Dyslexia, as she explores why dyslexic thinking is a superpower and a key skill for the future of work. Discover ways to empower dyslexic thinkers in the workplace—including strategies for dyslexic thinkers to share their strengths, challenges, and needs—as well as how to evaluate an organization’s recruitment and hiring processes to empower dyslexic thinkers. Along the way, Kate highlights the importance of employee resource groups and global organizations to foster community for dyslexic thinkers around the world.

    In this course, I see myself reflected. I understood what my superpowers are; they were brought to my top of mind. I am very pleased that dyslexia is being highlighted as a catalyst for change. The only thing I would like more is for this information to be available in Spanish so that more people can understand all these concepts. Unfortunately, I have let go of or stopped pursuing job opportunities because I know that human resource filters are not in my favor. For me, a spelling test could be a reason for not being considered further in an interview. Thank you very much for promoting dyslexic thinking, and please count on me for anything I can do to help with the translation into Spanish.
