October is dyslexia awareness month, and we were recently introduced to Gil Gershoni, who is on a mission to help us all recognize dyslexia as a creative superpower.
Gershoni runs an influential agency that’s been reshaping brands with the power of dyslexic design thinking for decades.
One in five people have dyslexia, and there are many other kinds of neurodivergent thinkers out there.
We hope this bonus episode opens your eyes to other modes of creative thinking. Thanks for listening.
