    Time zone question…

    I am located in the eastern United States, time zone UTC -5. What time zone are the coaching hours scheduled in?

                  I may not be a good role model for this in practice, but what I try to do is
                  – identify the volunteer tasks that are meaningful to me, and focus on those. eg. I like helping people in the community directly, and not the media stuff. So for you it might be identifying what you’re looking to get out of this experience so that you can…

                        I think just in case they are ignorant / unaware of the nuances of the neurotype.
                        Attwood and Garnett suggest not disclosing due to ongoing stigma in the workplace..
                        I guess I’m comfortable disclosing but don’t necessarily want to have to explain the whole genre.
                        Was thinking maybe there were points to keep in mind – eg. sometimes…

                        Hi @april-lea , to clarify, I already have a career coach lined up. I am more seeking whether there is anything I might need to be aware of in case my career coach is assuming an NT approach.

                          On a recent Attwood and Garnett webinar about autism in the workplace, they suggest rather than jumping in with ND terms, starting with “I’m the sort of person who……” to gauge support and understanding.
