A real situation. A real team. A real problem.

The team believes their lead has ADHD, and blames that for everything: chaos, stress, last-minute scrambles, and sleepless nights. But here’s the truth:

👉 The real problem isn’t what you think it is. And solving it doesn’t require a diagnosis.

In this episode, Dr Lisa Colledge shares a team case study: delivering on a deadline feels like a warzone, the team feels disrespected and overwhelmed, and performance is below where the team feels it should be.

Discover:

• Why “she’s just so ADHD” is the wrong frame, and a red herring.

• How the real issue is unconnected neurostyles and undefined team norms.

• How Lisa’s team operationalizing FIT model offers a better path forward.

• What a team-created, neuro-inclusion-inspired solution actually looks like.

• How building this team capability provides the foundation for scalable, sustainable high trust with performance.

You won’t hear generic advice or diagnosis-led frameworks here. The episode describes a practical, cultural shift, designed for reality.

💬 "Inclusion shouldn’t be all on the person asking for adjustments. The most effective teams make inclusive practices part of how they operate every day."
