Look at this as an opportunity to show your leadership skills.
Take them all under your wing and polish those turds till they shine brightly.
Then sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor, a promotion, raise and the respect of senior management.

I have a manager that does not seem to understand mental illnesses, disorders, etc. He thinks I am making excuses rather than trying to explain things (I have diagnosed ADHD, anxiety, and depression) and I’m trying to take ownership for issues but also help him understand what I am describing better as well. We are sitting down for a conversation later this week. Any advice on how to gently educate or help with his understanding of neurodivergence and other mental health considerations?
