The One Where Everyone has ADHD (ft. Jodie Hill)

HR Director's Cut

We're joined by Jodie Hill to give our advice on supporting employees with ADHD in a workplace where scepticism exists among senior leadership.

75% of those with ADHD have a mental health condition [Mental Health Clinic]. We share how to make reasonable adjustments and increase understanding & recognition of ADHD as a positive trait.

"Making decisions is difficult for a lot of people - I can make decisions quickly. Cut through all the crap and get to the point." - Jodie Hill

Resources we talk about:

  • Supporting colleagues amid ADHD medication challenges - Thrive Law
  • A Brief Employer’s Guide to ADHD - Thrive Law
  • Access to Work Assessment

We asked our LinkedIn followers how much of the population they thought had ADHD:
👉 5 people said 2%
👉 20 people said 5%
👉 55 people said 10%

The correct answer is... 5% [National Institute for Health & Care Excellence]
