Today we’d like to introduce you to Ryan Mayer
Hi Ryan, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I struggled for nearly 20 years to find my way in Corporate America. I always felt like I had so much talent and a unique ability to connect with new people on a deep level. However; that talent wasn’t being utilized as best as it could be.
My ADHD made it hard for me to accomplish the “duties as assigned” in my many job roles. I would thrive in some aspects of the job and fall behind in the administrative tasks. My management didn’t fully understand my condition and was not willing to work with me to have me grow into a position that would best utilize my skill set.
In 2020, I took on a career move of becoming an Entrepreneur. I became a certified ADHD coach with a mission and I haven’t looked back.
I’ve BECOME the resource that I desperately needed 15 years ago. It’s my mission to educate corporate leaders that there are untapped resources within their Human Resources. It is time for team members to shed the shell of shame.
Now I am a professional certified ADHD Coach, specializing in serving adults navigating the unique challenges of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in everyday life.
My coaching approach, focused on Accountability and Mindset, has earned acclaim and fostered personal and professional growth for clients around the globe.
With a seasoned corporate background, I have keenly identified an opportunity that has become a mission – to revolutionize the entire corporate culture by championing the acknowledgment and inclusion of invisible disabilities in the workplace.
Recognizing the profound impact such inclusivity can have on corporate culture, productivity and the bottom line, I have dedicated myself to promoting environments where the often-overlooked nuances of invisible disabilities are not only acknowledged, but integrated seamlessly into the fabric of organizational success.
Using my More Than ADHD™ System, I help business leaders and busy professionals to “do what they do best” at work every day.
Additionally, my @ADHD_Coach_RyanMayer videos on social media platforms have inspired millions of people worldwide, and have led to coaching people from 23 different countries, and speaking internationally.
My writing about NeuroInclusion in the workplace has been featured in Forbes, Fast Company, ADHD Online and Employee Benefit News.
Presently, I speak to audiences of all sizes about how corporations can appreciate, cultivate, and advocate for a neuro inclusive workforce.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
I have the opportunity to face off against one of my most formidable rivals each day: myself! Like all of us, I am engaged in the neverending quest for self-improvement. Although I may be considered a world-renowned Coach for those with ADHD, that does not mean that I am immune to the challenges that my neurodivergent brain produces every single day. Most of these mental barriers involve the administrative side of running my own business. I have absolutely earned the right to be a certified Disabled Owned Business Enterprise because the prospect of keeping track of all of the administrative duties can be overwhelming. There is a lot to keep organized and stay on top of!
I am extremely blessed to have a team that supports me in all of the areas where my ADHD brain causes me to fall short, including administrative tasks, technology, anything involving numbers or short-term memory, and tedious things like scheduling. With this strong team beside me, I can tackle the tasks that do not come as easily to me or are not my favorite. Instead, I can spend more time on the things that energize me: coaching my clients, giving presentations, and making mutually beneficial networking connections!
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Ryan Mayer Coaching, LLC?
I am on a mission to change the way that the world views people with non-apparent (i.e. “invisible”) disabilities, especially in the workplace. My focus is to help business leaders everywhere to start “seeing the invisible” potential in every team member, in order to create more inclusive workplace cultures.
To unlock the true capability of team members of every neurotype, I utilize a three-part framework, which incorporates: Educate, Equip, and Empower. These tailored coaching and training solutions aim to EDUCATE senior leadership on the reality and value of neurodiversity, EQUIP middle management with strategies to implement inclusive practices with their departments and teams, and finally to EMPOWER individuals with hidden disabilities to advocate for themselves to maximize their own capabilities.
These unique solutions, centered around Coach Ryan’s More Than ADHD™️ System, to enhance NeuroInclusion, allowing every team member to show up as their best selves at work each day. The genesis of this approach came from a blend of my ADHD coach training, individual work with solo and group clients, and lived experience when I have personally encountered discrimination as a result of how my brain is wired.
The reason why my corporate programs have been so successful is that leaders in business are regularly wrestling with challenges such as high turnover rates, disengaged employees, and the escalating costs of recruitment. The struggle to maintain a motivated, productive, and stable workforce can feel overwhelming. Here at Ryan Mayer Coaching, we understand the unique challenges facing both HR and DEI leaders in today’s competitive landscape, and are ready to help!
The reality of remote work also positions the NeuroInclusion offerings from Ryan Mayer Coaching competitively when it comes to pricing, as RMC is able to deliver these workshops either live or remote, depending on the needs or budgets of the organization. In addition to the interactive Live NeuroInclusion Workshops, RMC is also proud to offer both “Employee Empowerment Program” & “NeuroInclusion for Managers” Programs, which are cloud-based video trainings that are offered “On-Demand.”
This kind of work is deeply meaningful to me, as I know that the interactive training experiences will help teams mitigate risk, improve efficiency, and increase bottom-line revenue by mobilizing the full spectrum of all neurotypes. It is a Proven Process that I have used with my clients, global audience, and other organizations of all sizes.
What Is The Impact?
The More Than ADHD™️ System approach will help organizations to avoid the cost of lost productivity due to employee disengagement, which the AMA estimates costs companies as much as $550 billion annually in the United States.
