I’m really excited to bring Gemma Allies, one of my epic C Suite ® clients onto the show today, Gemma has kindly come onto the podcast to share her journey inside The C Suite ® and also why she decided to join the programme - and how she’s been able to implement it with companies in the retail sector to support them with ADHD awareness so that they can embed more inclusive ways of working and help their workforce become more productive. Gemma is an expert in ADHD awareness and inclusive work practices in retail corporations and is sharing with us her personal journey of overcoming challenges and discrimination as a neurodivergent individual in the corporate world and how she was able to master emotional detachment for sales success.
