About the Event

Join us for an engaging panel discussion exploring the role of dyslexic thinking in business, leadership, and innovation, featuring:

  • Dorenda Britten
  • Chris Cole
  • Graham Grant
  • Michelle Sharp

Dyslexia is something we need to overcome to be successful... but how true is that?

In this UC Business School Thought Leadership event we explore the advantages that dyslexic thinkers bring to business and innovation. Our panel will discuss both their experiences as business leaders and their experiences of working with dyslexic thinkers: what dyslexia is, what businesses can learn from dyslexic thinkers and, ultimately, what benefits this approach brings us as business leaders and thinkers.

The discussion will cover how embracing different ways of thinking can strengthen performance, innovation, and leadership.

Following the panel, there will be an opportunity for audience Q&A.

Doors open 5.15pm for a 5.30pm start. Networking from 6.30pm.
