The Best Career Path if You Have ADHD

About this video

Dr. John Kruse argues that for many people with ADHD, the best career is not one 50-year career but a series of shorter ones, such as ten five-year careers. He notes that the work world has become more fragmented, and criticises a norm-centred bias that treats changing careers as failure. Kruse says people with varied experience often bring more to what they do, and urges embracing that path as potentially optimal.

Key takeaways

• Dr. Kruse argues many people with ADHD may thrive with several shorter careers rather than one long career.
• Dr. Kruse criticises the bias that treats changing careers as a bad thing.
