Liam Glover has been the Executive Director of the Arrow Australia Leadership Program for ten years. He is passionate about raising up leaders for churches and Christian organisations. And Liam has a 'busy brain'! Or to be more precise, he has ADHD.
Liam shares what this has meant for him in leadership and the impact that it has in the way he leads. He talks about the challenges of focusing on just one thing, and how hard it can be to regulate that. And the time when he realised his ADHD was causing him to be just a little too fast and forceful in meetings.
I love Liam's description of himself as being like Doug the Dog from the movie 'Up', always ready to leap into chasing a squirrel! And I love Liam's very practical thoughts on strategies he uses to regulate his mental behavior. Key for him are exercise and spiritual disciplines (which he does super early in the morning!) You can read Liam's own reflections on The Potential of an ADHD Leader in his blog article.
Liam also talks about how vital it is to have people in your life to help you to reflect on what you are doing.
