What are examples of companies with neurodivergent leadership?
- giantg2 9mo agoGood joke. I asked a smiliar question and also why the disability wage gap wasn't included in my company's DEI report while the gender wage gap and leadership representation was. No real answers of course...
- jgilias 9mo agoLots of psychopaths and narcissists in C suites all over. They mask pretty well though.
- lukan 9mo agoThat .. is not what is meant here. Neurodivergent people surely can also be narcisstic psychopaths, but it is not really related as far as I know.
- vaidhy 9mo agoNeurodivergent is not just one thing. Are there people on the autism spectrum at leadership level? - Steve Jobs was considered to be one even though he was not formally diagnosed as one. Are there people on ADD/ADHD spectrum at leadership levels - yes, I know of a few.. Are there people with sociopathic tendencies at leadership level - You can answer this one :)
- torginus 9mo agoI don't think he means that - but you being in the class of people that has to fix real bugs, and deliver working software puts you at a disadvantage compared to people who just blow hot air and talk in circles, even if you are a charming social butterfly outside of word.
- torginus 9mo agoNot sure, but I have worked at places where being genuninely technically capable has had a positive effect one ones career advancement. At other places it was treated with open hatred and scorn, with there being a concentrated effort to keep techies away from the important people and positions.
