Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Title doesn't match contents
I was hoping for some practical tips on how to manage ADD at my current job. Most of those tips--and there are only a few basic ones--can be found in the very first 1/3 of the book. The second 2/3 focus instead on getting a different job and getting help from third party professionals. I notice that most of the positive reviews come from some of the kinds of professionals recommended in the last part of the book. Not that there's anything wrong with that, or with them per se, but there's just not a lot in this slim volume for people who love their jobs and who are interested in staying there and striving toward greater sucess where they're at already.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Not as good as I had hoped
I had such high hopes for this book guiding me through some very challenging times at work. While I gained some valuable tips from Making ADD Work:... All in all it has not been as helpful as some of the other books I am consulting. It comes off as more of a discusion group than a true problem solving solution.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Practical Advice and Inspiration for On-the-Job Success
What I love about "Making ADD Work" is that Blythe Grossberg gets to the heart of the issues facing ADDers in the workplace. She doesn't waste too much time explaining ADD, but rather dives deeply into the lives and work habits of adults with ADD who have successfully learned to cope with their challenges and utilize their strengths.

Dr. Grossberg focuses on the three key areas that are most helpful for adults with ADD: improving work skills, finding the right career path, and getting support. Additionally, the book is packed with inspirational stories and expert advice. I highly recommend it to all my clients!

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Step by step
Among all books on autism or ADD
I've ever read, this book best fits
my feelings.

There are several aspects imformative
how to live a social life with ADD.
On the other hand, contents whole
reffers to a couple of cases from
employees at workplace to CEOs or
founders.

This shows, I think, the author intend
to let us, ADDers, know how we are going
on. Step by step is essential.

I wish Dr.Grossberg to write down a new
one on ADD based upon brain science
viewpoints.



Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - Much ado about nothing
There is very little of substance to this book with regard to concrete suggestions on strategies a person can use to work with ADD as an adult - especially in the work place; lots of "stories." There is great emphasis about enlisting the help of family, friends, coworkers. People with ADD just want to work with it; they don't want their world to be involved in it. A very disappointing missive.
