S1E27 | Wesley Faulkner on Neurodivergent Programmers

SHOW SUMMARY:

In this episode, Wesley Faulkner from SingleStore and the Community Pulse podcast joins us to talk about neurodiversity and learning differences in technology. Wesley stresses the importance for managers and co-workers to be open to working with and conscientious of those who have learning challenges such as dyslexia and ADHD. Digging even deeper, we address how organizations and programming teams in particular can benefit from recognizing that we ALL have learning differences and that it's those differences that can foster creative & diverse approaches to building meaningful applications.
