Managing Up with ADHD: How to Support Your Boss (and Yourself) in the Workplace

Managing Up with ADHD: How to Support Your Boss (and Yourself) in the Workplace

What happens when both you and your boss have ADHD? In this episode, I'm joined by my longtime friend and former colleague, Sherry, for a deep dive into the challenges and strategies of managing up with a neurodivergent manager.

We share real-world stories about navigating chaotic energy, building strengths-based teams, structuring weekly check-ins, and using "reverse accommodations" to create a more successful and supportive workplace.

Whether you're neurodivergent yourself or simply want better communication with your leadership, this conversation is packed with insights you can apply today.

Topics we cover:

  • Managing priorities when your boss has ADHD

  • Building trust through confident vulnerability

  • Supporting overwhelmed managers without doing their job for them

  • Communication tips for remote neurodivergent teams

🎧 Subscribe for more conversations about ADHD, autism, and thriving in the workplace.
