Profile summary and neurodiversity insights




This implies that you are particularly capable of detailed analysis and making specific deductions rather than idea generation and broad decision making. You can analyse and identify what is in front of you and then develop an appropriate plan to proceed. Those with strong analytical capability are potentially ideal for identifying issues or opportunities quickly.

You are able to develop understanding of how things work and create systems and processes that take advantage of what has been discovered. You are ready to assist others to achieve higher productivity by following these processes.

Your Strengths



Strengths


  • Attention to detail 96%
  • Ability to see individual elements 92%
  • Accuracy of output 94%

Attention to detail

An awareness of the finer details and ability to spot and identify aspects that require attention e.g. if data is out of date or characters are misaligned or incorrect.

Ability to see individual elements

You may be able to identify and understand the separate parts that make up the whole. This ability is a gift and can cross many work types e.g. for projects it could refer to identifying suitable stages or breaking down tasks into manageable activities or for processes it refers to the individual steps and ideal outcomes. In people management situations it may be more to do with balancing preferred working styles and personal traits when creating teams.

Accuracy of output

An ability to proof read quickly ensuring that all required elements are present and consistency upheld.

    Learning Styles

    You will likely be visually oriented and data focused, with the ability to handle numbers, but perhaps not as your primary focus. You can function well as part of a team but may require periods of solitude in order to focus on and produce particular work. Communication is likely best in specific forms for both outgoing and incoming information and you may wish to record and confirm in writing anything expressed or agreed verbally.
    Audio

    Audial / Vocal

    Speech in particular will form a large part of how you receive and convey information. You may adapt the style depending on the audience to ensure that the information is appropriately conveyed. You are aware of any limitations of speech or difficulties in conveying through speech and will at times have to rely on additional approaches.

     

     

    Visual

    You may be very visually oriented in your approach to receiving and giving information. This means that even when you are dealing with purely textual information your vision of it is more three-dimensional. You are able to remember text by visualising the page or list, similar to someone with a photographic memory. You may be able to remember facts by their colour, size, or even by their position on the page.

    read write

    Reading / Writing

    Even if the literal act of reading or writing presents challenges, (perhaps related to decoding or processing), you may possess the ability to absorb information efficiently through the classic educational methods. Able to work in solitude without becoming overly distracted or unstimulated.

    Challenge Areas

    Can require a sense of validity

    You can sometimes feel frustrated or unappreciated if your enquiries are not answered or your solutions are not adopted especially if no reason is given.

    Can require clear direction

    You may require key details before you can effectively approach a task or project.

    Try not to become disconnected from others

    You may clearly identify issues and opportunities but then prefer to delegate tasks to others to reach the final outcome.
     

    Can require structure

    You may get frustrated by lack of structure. Even if you can complete the task you much prefer a fixed process or clear approach to overcoming challenges.

    Overly intricate

    You are interested in the detail so when people are being general and not to the point it could become very frustrating.

    Interim support

    There are many occasions when a one-off intervention or support arrangement may be required. This can include scribing or supporting during an assessment or interview for specific candidates. It may be necessary to provide a workshop or seminar for colleagues in order to inform them of specific traits or behaviours that may be present and how best to assist the individual to reach their potential.

    Personal mentoring for the improvement of fundamental skills.

    We all have strengths and weaknesses. It can be very beneficial to chat things through with a mentor. Personal coaching or mentoring can assist with developing more robust strategies for addressing those less developed skill areas. Roche has a mentoring scheme available to all employees and Occupational Health experts for specific work-place improvements/adjustments. These employees are trained to support individuals with their individual needs, ranging from how to talk to colleagues and line managers through to time management and scheduling

    Disclosure and Advice

    Disclosure and self-advocacy

    Disclosing to your HR department can be a key step in order to ensure that you have access to support and services. Even if you did not disclose face-to-face or explain on any initial Occupational Health documentation, it is never too late to inform HR of Neurodiversity just so that they are already aware if it becomes relevant in the future.

    Disclosing to line management is highly recommended because it will allow you to candid in scheduled catch-ups. It will no longer be so out of place to express an issue or as embarrassing to request an unscheduled chat. This approach is just as helpful to line managers because it gives them the opportunity to appropriately address some issues that may otherwise be handled indelicately.

    Disclosing to colleagues often occurs naturally over time but if a critical issue occurs before that point, the disclosure process can feel forced or negative. Even if your specific Neurodiversity is not shared, it can be a great help to inform others of any issues so that they can learn or understand any differences.
