The Gift of Dyslexic Thinking | Richard Coope | TEDxFrensham

The speaker takes us on his personal journey of understanding and accepting his neurodiversity and the steps he now takes towards championing dyslexic thinking as a super power in our age of robots. Thinking differently is not a disability in this age, it is a huge asset to all businesses and educational settings. A digital leader with 25 years of experience, Richard has been a Digital Director in 5 of the UK's largest independent agencies and runs his own digital consultancy, called Brightful. During the pandemic, Richard founded a not-for-profit social enterprise, called Winchester Creatives CIC, that helped to significantly reduce the feelings of hopelessness, job despair and isolation in young unemployed people under the age of 25 in Hampshire. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
