ADHD, classified as a neurodivergent condition, comes with many related issues – motivation, focus, and inability to perform mundane tasks among them. However, adults with ADHD still have to fit into the mould society has created, but it’s not a comfortable one. One in three ADHD adults has associated depression, and one in eight has anxiety.

Dr George Sachs, a co-founder of the Inflow app that uses cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to help individuals with ADHD manage their daily struggles, spoke with Arabian Business’s Lauren Holtmeier about how individuals with ADHD can work best in an office environment, and what managers can do to support their neurodivergent employees.
