There is a need to demonstrate the potential that dyslexic adults
have to achieve success despite the difficulties often associated
with dyslexia. A focus on adults with dyslexia is pertinent given
that individual life experiences have the potential to make
dyslexia in adulthood more variable in manifestation than in
childhood. This book offers a comprehensive discussion of the
relationship between dyslexia and success based on current
understanding derived from theory and practice, including the
challenges of dyslexia in work-related contexts and a range of
potential solutions. It presents a framework to conceptualise adult
dyslexia and these individual difficulties and provides a basis for
success. Personal stories of adult dyslexics who have faced
work-related challenges are included alongside a set of
strategy-based solutions for dealing with and responding to such
challenges. This is an essential resource for dyslexic adults
themselves, plus coaches, HR departments, and managers in
organisations and training institutions.
