Meet the Intersectional Innovator
The Kaleidoscopic Mind
Intersectional Innovators possess minds that view the world through multiple overlapping lenses of identity and neurodiversity. Their cognitive makeup shows strong expressions of both ADHD (55-70%) and autism (50-60%), working alongside dyslexia (40%), dysgraphia (35%), dyscalculia (30%), and dyspraxia (35%). This unique neural blend, combined with their diverse cultural and personal experiences, creates a distinctively rich perspective.
Natural Strengths
These individuals excel at synthesising insights from different aspects of their identity and cognitive style. Their ability to understand multiple viewpoints simultaneously makes them natural bridge-builders between different communities and ways of thinking. They intuitively grasp how various aspects of identity and neurodiversity interact, leading to uniquely innovative solutions that consider diverse needs and experiences.
Workplace Impact
Intersectional Innovators thrive when allowed to bring their whole selves to their work. Their multilayered understanding of how different identities and thinking styles interact makes them exceptional at creating inclusive solutions. They naturally spot connections others miss, often becoming catalysts for meaningful organisational change.
Growth Journey
While their multifaceted perspective brings unique insights, managing multiple identities and processing styles requires skill. Success comes through:
Developing sustainable ways to navigate different contexts
Building confidence in their unique viewpoint
Finding balance between community engagement and self-care
Creating support systems that acknowledge their whole experience
