Unlock the potential of Dyslexic Thinking
Workplace inclusion is essential not only for an equitable employee experience, but also for maximizing the value that comes from having different perspectives on your team. Neurodivergent professionals, including dyslexics, have different ways of problem solving—such as Dyslexic Thinking—that can help broaden our understanding of success. In collaboration with Made By Dyslexia, LinkedIn recently hosted a significant discussion exploring dyslexia in the workplace. The discussion highlighted the importance of defining Dyslexic Thinking as a valuable workplace skill and demonstrating ways to empower it in the workplace.?

The value of Dyslexic Thinking
Future workplaces will depend on Dyslexic Thinking skills but research shows that most dyslexics feel their Dyslexic Thinking skills are not understood at work. Just 1 in 5 UK dyslexics and 38% of dyslexics in the US believe their company understands the advantages of Dyslexic Thinking. Dyslexic Thinking skills include pattern recognition, spatial reasoning, lateral thinking, and interpersonal communication—abilities that directly translate into some of employers’ most in-demand skills.
Even as AI continues to evolve necessary skills for today’s jobs, it cannot replicate the vital soft skills that Dyslexic Thinkers excel at. In LinkedIn’s recent Future of Work Report, 92% of executives agreed that people skills are still more important than ever.
To bring visibility to these hidden talents, LinkedIn members can add Dyslexic Thinking as a skill to their profile, joining nearly 23,000 people who have already done so!

4 个月hi madam ! At first as a woman! A woman from the injured group of Afghanistan would like to receive your help in setting up a radiology imaging center for women, because unfortunately they are not allowed to take a simple radiograph in a center whose employees are men, due to the restrictions of the situation for the female group! !! And this causes the disease to remain unknown, the condition and illness continue and eventually disappear, and most of them do not even have to pay for it, but we can by setting up an equipped radiography imaging center, for example: mammography, ultrasound, X-ray, MRE, CT scan, CBCT, OPG and the like with the employees of the female department, to achieve a better diagnosis and proper treatment of this injured group.And on the other hand, let's create a space for growth and job creation and a source of income for this injured group. Instead of extravagant and high-consumption investments, think about these disadvantaged (Afghan women) once!
