Episode 25 - S2 E6 : Brains Behind the Behaviour: ADHD at Work (and what leaders keep getting wrong) w/ Moonlake Lee)
ADHD at work is still one of the most misunderstood neurodivergent experiences—especially in Singapore. We don’t talk about it enough.
So this week on Innotainment, Aga Gajownik is joined by Moonlake Lee, founder of Unlocking ADHD, to unpack what ADHD really looks like in the workplace beyond stereotypes, labels, and “special treatment” myths.
In this episode, they explore:
Why ADHD is often invisible, undiagnosed, and undisclosed at work
How executive function challenges (time, overwhelm, emotional regulation) show up in real teams
Neurodivergent burnout, masking, and the hidden cost to organisations
Why “ADHD-friendly” workplaces are actually just better-designed workplaces
What leaders can start, stop, and redesign today—without lowering standards or overloading managers
How to support ADHD employees without singling them out or creating reverse exclusion
This conversation moves beyond awareness into practical, brain-friendly design. From communication and check-ins to psychological safety, body doubling, and strength-based work, this episode offers actionable insights for leaders, managers, and neurodivergent professionals alike.
