Executive functions are the mental skills that we use every day to work, learn, and manage our lives. Neuro-diverse people who have neurological conditions such as ADHD, Dyslexia, Autism (and many others) will have both strengths and weaknesses in their executive skills. The first step to improving your executive functions is to assess where your strengths and weaknesses lie and look for tasks that help you play to your strengths and tools that help you improve your weaknesses.
