Summary
40 per cent of self-made millionaires are dyslexic.
Dyslexia does not equal stupidity. For many, it’s a superpower. Think Steve Jobs, Henry Ford, Steven Spielberg and Sir Richard Branson.
The Dyslexic Edge challenges the narrative that views dyslexia as a deficit or impediment to success, presenting compelling research to demonstrate quite the opposite. By delving into the lives and experiences of some of the best-known dyslexic minds worldwide, Jamie Waller and Dr Helen Taylor highlight the distinct advantage that dyslexic thinking brings. From billionaires to budding visionaries, they provide an illuminating deep-dive into the mind and creativity of the dyslexic thinker and offer actionable insights to help the listener apply these frameworks to their own success.
Dyslexic thinking is limitless. And, crucially, it can be implemented by anyone.

Enlightening
Monumental effort has gone in to bringing this to the fore.
No longer should Dyslexia be viewed as a deficit but rather a fundamental part of why humans have in fact progressed and excelled at the rate they have to date. Dyslexia is an essential part of our collective advantage. Not only does this draw a light specific to dyslexia but to working together cross spectrum.
A must read which grows ever more relevant as the way we engage with Dyslexic thinking could unlock seismic progress across all disciplines particularly in the light of AI.

Raw and Real Leadership
I’ve had Jamie as a guest on my Inspiring Leadership podcast and found him to be a thoughtful, driven, kind and highly engaging leader.
His book The Dyslexic Edge is a key contribution in the field of dyslexia. I now am able to value much more my own dyslexia in hearing the stories of others and relating to them in what they went through as children and growing up and how they have overcome and made use of the different ways of thinking.
The book is highly engaging very readable (or if you’re like me listenable) and the stories are riveting to hear. Raw and real leadership.
Definitely one I would recommend, for you
