Typical challenges of dyslexia in the workplace

• Difficulties with executive function and working memory, cognitive flexibility, inhibitory control, planning and organisation, self-monitoring, initiation, and emotional regulation
• Unfounded stigma and lack of understanding by others of how a highly intelligent person could possibly have dyslexia, which may affect your self-esteem
• Emotional dysregulation, such as anxiety, panic attacks, depression, anger, sadness, fear of success or fear of failure
• In your working environment, there may be challenges that drag you down, bore you or overwhelm you, such as admin tasks, writing tasks, reading large quantities of information or organisational skills
• Sensitivity to your environment which may negatively affect your performance: background noise, poor lighting, sensitivity to heat/cold, space etc
• You are probably not living to your true potential
• You may feel fed up with having to continually prove yourself or not getting that promotion or not effectively actioning your amazing business ideas
• With your determination, high energy and desire to be successful, you run the risk of burnout
• Lack of self-confidence and negative self-image that may affect your personal life
• Poor time management and work-life balance may pose a problem
• Whilst you have incredible long-term memory, short-term working memory generally poses an issue, especially auditory working memory
• Challenges in identifying the detail of the big picture and then sequencing tasks in the right order
• Difficulty completing multi-steps tasks 
• Remembering large quantities of information needs to be presented in your preferred style of learning, often a visual preference with use of diagrams, colour, pictures, easy to read fonts and interaction

• Fear of failing vocational exams
• If you are not reaching your potential, you are likely to be feeling highly frustrated, possibly angry or have low mood
