Jeff Kaye Co-CEO of Kaye/Bassman International Quoted in Dallas CEO Magazine's ADHD In The Workplace Article
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Whether it’s the CEO or an employee who has the condition, harnessing the energy of trendsetting, out-of-the-box thinkers can boost productivity and job satisfaction. For company leaders, managing employees with ADHD requires a philosophy that embraces the workers’ diverse needs and a willingness to harness their strengths in a way so they can be successful, says Jeff Kaye, co-CEO at Kaye/Bassman International Corp., an executive search and recruitment firm in Dallas.“With an ADHD employee, ask what are the inherent competencies that are higher and how can I allow that condition to manifest itself in the most productive way,” he says.
An ADHD employee with unbridled energy and passion and an interest in working on many different projects could excel in a sales job if paired with another employee who is good at research and administrative work. Offering an accommodation rather than expecting the individual to do all of the paperwork and computer time will likely improve productivity and job satisfaction. There’s a fine line between accommodating an employee, however, and letting him use the disorder as an excuse for not improving. About Kaye/Bassman
