Submitting an enquiry doesn’t commit you to anything. It simply allows Maisie to check your preferred dates and begin the conversation.
ADHD rarely shows up at work as a neat list of recognisable traits.
More often, it shows up in the moments people misunderstand: the task that never quite gets started, the deadline met through another invisible sprint, the question someone is afraid to ask — or the capable employee struggling with something everyone assumes should be easy.
This live 75-minute session helps your employees, managers and leaders look beneath what they can see — so they can make better sense of those moments, approach conversations with greater confidence and begin identifying what a person, process or working environment may need more, less or differently.

Not sure if this is right for your organisation? Book a call and talk it through with Maisie.


AWARENESS IS A STARTING POINT
Your people won’t all arrive with the same knowledge or experience. Some will bring professional knowledge or lived experience; others may understand ADHD mainly through familiar traits, stereotypes or things they have seen online.
This session is designed to meet those different starting points without oversimplifying ADHD or expecting personal disclosure.
After 75 minutes, your people will be better able to:
Recognise ADHD beyond the familiar stereotypes and understand how it can appear in ordinary working life.
Separate what has happened from the assumptions attached to it, particularly around attitude, effort or intent.
Make better sense of the invisible factors that may affect activation, attention, regulation and access to capability.
Consider where the difficulty may sit — within capability, current capacity, the task, the process or the surrounding environment.
Approach workplace conversations with better questions and greater confidence, while keeping support, expectations and accountability in the same conversation.

More than just 75 minutes
The session is simple for you to arrange, easy for your people to take part in and designed to connect the learning with everyday working life.
PRE-SESSION
Let Maisie know what matters to you
Before the session, you are welcome to share a little about your audience, your priorities and anything particularly important to include — by email, voice note or a short call, whichever works best for you.
This helps Maisie shape the emphasis and examples around what will be most useful for your people.
Maisie will also send you an optional mini-workbook to share with your people before the session. There is nothing to complete beforehand, and nobody will be asked to share personal information.
SESSION
Learn, reflect
and get curious!
Your people will join Maisie for 60 minutes of practical learning, brought to life through relatable workplace examples, lived experience and evidence-informed insight.
Your people can use the mini-workbook to capture their own thoughts and questions as the conversation unfolds.
Maisie will finish with 15 minutes of live Q&A.
POST-SESSION
Turn the learning
into your next step
If the session raises a question or workplace challenge you would like to explore further, you can book a complimentary 30-minute follow-up call with Maisie.
You can use the time to talk through one real situation, ask questions once the learning has had time to settle and consider what might be a useful next step.
The call is completely optional and there is no need to book it unless it would genuinely help.
ADHD Awareness Month gives your organisation a reason to begin the conversation.
The session and optional follow-up support help you keep it going beyond October.


THE FOUR Cs BEHIND THE SESSION
Learning more about ADHD is useful. But the real difference is what your people do with that understanding when the next confusing or difficult moment happens at work.
This session brings four simple ideas together.

CURIOSITY
Curiosity helps your people pause and ask: What else might be going on here?
CONFIDENCE
Greater understanding gives your people the language and confidence to ask better questions, have honest conversations and consider what might help next.
COMPASSION
Compassion helps your people recognise invisible effort, overwhelm or shame — without avoiding difficult conversations, removing expectations or pretending the impact does not matter.
CONSISTENCY
Curiosity, confidence and compassion can make one conversation better.
But real workplace change happens when they shape what your people do again and again — not only during ADHD Awareness Month, and not only when somebody happens to have a particularly understanding manager.
Consistency is what turns good intentions into a different everyday experience of work.
Curiosity isn’t a soft alternative to accountability.
It helps your people respond to the right problem.
Your people leave with more useful questions, shared language and greater confidence to approach workplace conversations without blame, shame or automatically lowering expectations.



A NOTE FROM MAISIE
I know ADHD as a late-diagnosed woman who spent years experiencing its impact without having the language to explain it.
I know it as an employee, a leader and a business owner. And I know it as a mum raising neurodivergent children in a world that can be very quick to respond to what it sees, without always becoming curious about what might be happening underneath.
Alongside that lived experience, I bring more than 20 years of professional experience across education, social care and workplaces. It means my sessions are evidence-informed, but never detached from real life.
Whether I’m delivering a bespoke session for 30 people at a Women’s Business Forum or an organisation-wide programme for more than 600 education professionals, my focus in every room remains the same: making complex ideas feel human, practical and useful.
I won’t give your team a perfect script or a neat list of things that “people with ADHD need”. Because ADHD doesn’t show up in one neat, predictable way — and neither do people.
Instead, I’ll help your team become more curious about what they notice, more confident in the conversations they have and better able to recognise where a person, process or environment may need something more, less or different.
You don’t need to have all the answers before we begin. You simply need to be willing to start the conversation.
