ADHD Oasis Meetup: Improving Prioritization Skills [VIRTUAL]

Join us on Thursday may 16th, for New Tech’s ADHD Oasis Meetup: Improving Prioritization Skils

Register here. (Register through Meetup does not reserve your spot)

May 16th Hot Topic – Improving Prioritization Skills
Adults with ADHD frequently prioritize less critical tasks on their to-do lists, a phenomenon dubbed "procrastivity." This tendency stems from the challenge of managing complex tasks. Cognitive behavioral therapy techniques can aid in overcoming procrastivity by teaching individuals how to effectively prioritize tasks. Join us for free, virtual meetup convening with other ADHD techies to uncover strategies to improve prioritization skills.

Check out this article before the meetup:

• Why the ADHD Brain Chooses the Less Important Task — and How CBT Improves Prioritization Skills

You are not alone. Come join a community of peers where you can safely discuss your neurodiverse experiences with a supportive community of peers once month.

You can attend these virtual Meetups on the third Thursday of every month. The more Meetups you attend, the more peer connections you’ll make with other professionals who have neurodiverse brains like you. Instead of being lonely in your experience, come laugh, learn, and connect with your community.

Join us to be welcomed into a community that gets you and lives with similar neurodiverse brains.

During the Meetups we’ll share struggles as well as systems and strategies to overcome your executive functioning and working memory challenges like anxiety, overwhelm, miscommunication, interrupting, inattentiveness, stress, distractibility, procrastination, paperwork fails, imposter syndrome, having to mask your neurodiversity at work, and weak organization skills.

The Community
Professionals in technology who are managing ADHD, ADD, autism, dyslexia, depression, anxiety, or other neurodivergent conditions.
