Briefly Focused: Understanding ADHD In Lawyers | Lawyering with ADHD

Описание: ADHD is often misunderstood, especially in high-performance professions like law. In this program, lawyer-turned-career and ADHD coach Annie Little, JD, PCC of JD Nation will clear up common misconceptions about ADHD in lawyers by breaking down the relevant neuroscience (alongside lots of memes).


You will also learn about the unique challenges ADHD brings to the legal field, namely executive function deficits in everyday tasks like planning, prioritizing, and time management. But it’s not just about the struggles. This session also shows how lawyers with ADHD bring unique strengths to legal practice such as hyperfocus, complex pattern recognition, and an enviably strong sense of justice. The program will provide insights on how lawyers can minimize challenges related to ADHD while also leveraging their ADHD strengths.


This program is part of the BHBA+ original series "Briefly Focused: Lawyering with ADHD," designed specifically for attorneys navigating the unique challenges of ADHD or other executive dysfunction challenges.
