Rethinking Dyslexia: From Challenge to Superpower
Dyslexia is often seen as a disability - slow reading, poor writing - but it comes with hidden strengths. Did you know 40% of self-made millionaires are dyslexic? About 2 in 10 people are dyslexic, and most don’t even know it. In this talk, I’ll reveal what dyslexia truly is, share surprising facts, and take you inside a dyslexic mind: the challenges, the unique perspective, and the creativity it sparks. This way of seeing the world fuels “out-of-the-box” thinking, problem-solving, and innovation. By the end, I hope to reframe dyslexia as a superpower and offer practical ways to connect with and leverage dyslexic talent. Because thinking differently isn’t a weakness, it’s a remarkable strength.
