In this short workshop, Jesse Abrams will use the science of ADHD and attention to illuminate how today’s overwhelming world frays our ability to focus, regardless of whether we have ADHD—and how we can optimize our performance by better understanding our brains.
Entrepreneurs significantly over-index with ADHD. The same neurobiological traits that fuel innovation—risk-taking, fast pattern recognition, hyperfocus, and creative problem-solving—can be superpowers in the early stages of a venture. But as a company grows, these traits can also become liabilities: masking can lead to burnout, charisma can turn into imposter syndrome, and difficulties with planning, follow-through, or team management can inhibit effective scaling.
This session breaks down the neuroscience in an accessible way, exploring how ADHD and attention strain impact our ability to lead, create, and sustain momentum. You’ll learn practical strategies for managing attention more effectively and, through a series of exercises, walk away with a specific, customized plan for supporting your brain’s unique capacities and strengths. We'll also dig into the unique and constantly evolving AI tools we can use to help manage our brains.
