S1 E2 - The One With The Native American Wisdom - Adam Banks, Seasoned Executive

How can Native American philosophy help us navigate our emotions?

In this episode, we meet Adam Banks, a seasoned boardroom leader turned advisor who has worked at the highest levels of global business. Adam shares his remarkable career journey, his late discovery of his own autism, and his perspective as a parent to an autistic daughter, Georgina, the founder of AuDHD UK.

Dense with insights, this episode is a must-listen for neurodivergent people forging their own paths in the working world as well as  business leaders pondering how they can do more for their neurodivergent team members.

In this episode, we cover topics including:

• How he turned an unorthodox education to his advantage.
• How important "adult to adult" conversations are for people to do their best work.
• How Native American philosophy profoundly changed his approach to decision-making.
• How seemingly diverse teams can still become normalised without diverse experiences.
