Show Notes
Following the overwhelming response to Part 1, this session moves beyond awareness and into what organisations must do next.
In this conversation, we explore how ADHD intersects with psychosocial risk, work design, and WHS responsibilities, and why treating ADHD as an individual issue may be missing the bigger picture.
Because when you map ADHD against workplace conditions, you don’t just see a performance challenge…
You see:
- Role ambiguity
- Cognitive overload
- Constant interruption
- Poorly managed change
All of which are named psychosocial hazards.
In this session, we cover:- What Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD) looks like in the workplace
- Why role clarity and structure are critical for performance
- The impact of cognitive load and fragmented work environments
- How poor work design creates invisible strain
- Why this is a WHS and leadership responsibility
- What good work design actually looks like in practice
What happens when someone performs all day…
but has nothing left when they get home.
As discussed in this session, the cost of poor work design often doesn’t show up in:
- Performance reviews
- Absenteeism
- Dashboards
But it is real, and it matters.
Who this is for:- HSE / WHS Professionals
- HR & People Leaders
- Executives & Senior Leaders
- Anyone responsible for work design, performance, or team wellbeing
