Zooming Out: Dyslexic Designer and the Power of Contextual Thinking

Product design is a highly competitive field. This means that in order to succeed, one must be able to do more than just pay attention to small things – a person has to notice what other people do not. Individuals with dyslexia tend to have minds which are creative problem solvers because they look at the big picture. Let me take you through how dyslexia can be turned into a strength rather than being seen as weakness when it comes to designing things. Whether you’re a designer, business leader, or simply curious about the untapped potential of neurodiverse minds, this talk will challenge your perceptions and hopefully inspire you to view problems through a wider lens.
