After what I experienced, I realized that *I* was the leader in that organization, which, ironically, prided itself on leadership development.
Upon further reflection, I began to understand that what made me such a good leader were qualities I had, or developed, because of my neurodivergence.
It's now my life's quest to help more ND people get into positions of leadership and become better leaders. Because, I think, we are predisposed to be better at it
"Managers manage projects. Leaders lead people."
Being promoted often means you were the best at the project work with which you were tasked. But being a people manager is a whole new ball game, and it can take a large mentality shift to go from team member to leader. Your focus is no longer just on your piece of the puzzle, but on the whole. And we're not just talking about the project anymore. It includes the team, themselves.
Knowing what is most important to your organization and yourself will help you when it comes down to making difficult decisions.
Conventional business wisdom seems to come across as "profits over people", but the cost of employee turnover dramatically cuts profits. It's a mostly invisible cost that is hard to calculate, so often does not get considered in business decision calculations. This is a mistake.
Have Fun!
No more masking for the sake of professionalism. While professionalism is important, it is often used as the catch-all term to tell those of us who are Neurodivergent to be more "normal." I can tell you that I have managed to be myself, have fun, and create an environment where everyone felt safe to be themselves, while also maintaining a culture of professionalism. You don't actually have to be in a supervisory position to be this kind of leader!
I truly believe you are here because you are doing the best you can, and you want to continue to improve.
