AuDHD Joy approach & content

AuDHD Joy’s approach is based on the latest thinking in neurodiversity and HR spaces. Keep checking here for AuDHD Joy’s thought leadership and resources to help you tap into neurodivergent success at work.

The AuDHD Joy Coaching Model

AuDHD Joy uses a ‘choose your own adventure’ approach. First, the coachee identifies key priority areas from the 5 AuDHD Joy starting points. Second, together we explore strategies for empowerment, support and safety to enable a joyful and successful working experience.

The AuDHD Joy HR Model

AuDHD Joy recognises that your people challenges are layered. Together we explore how you can best support your neurodivergent talent, and guarantee sustainable success through empowering line managers and HR/People Partners, working with teams, and adjusting HR processes and structures.

AuDHD Joy uses coaching AND mentoring

I am a cross between a coach and a mentor, which I have found really works for neurodivergent clients. This is how I help:

Neurodivergent people’s experiences are often invalidated. Coaching supports them from the perspective of their experiences.

Sharing insights is a common neurodivergent way to build rapport and to learn. This is a key aspect of mentoring.

It can be hard for some neurodivergent people to envision the future, so using coaching and mentoring tools to shape the future are crucial.
