The essential guide for all those struggling with dyslexia or dyspraxia in the workplace

Dyslexic people face many problems in the workplace: difficulties with reading and writing, memory, organisation and time management, and a recent TUC report on dyslexia in the workplace estimates that 3 million people are affected.

Dyslexia: How to survive and succeed at work is written by a leading expert in the field for people of all backgrounds and abilities and will help you to master complex organisational skills, deal with a large workload and cope with the demands of deadlines. It also shows how to improve confidence, deal with stress, and build on the creative talent that many dyslexics possess.

Dyslexia: How to survive and succeed at work:
- Explains what dyslexic and dyspraxic difficulties are
- Describes how they affect workplace efficiency
- Offers strategies to manage dyslexic difficulties and reduce their adverse effect on work efficiency
- Provides information about ways in which employers can help dyslexic employees
