    Around 1 in 10 of the world’s population is affected by Dyslexia (and other reports suggest maybe 1 in 5), with around 3% seriously affected by it. There have been many famous, accomplished people with Dyslexia, including Tom Cruise, Mohammed Ali, Richard Branson, Pablo Picasso, Leonardo da Vinci and not forgetting The Fonz, Henry Wrinkler. But what is it, and what is it like to live with on a daily basis? It’s likely something you have heard of, and maybe associated with a struggle to spell words. However, its much broader than that, and can affect coordination, organisation and memory. Struggling with Dyslexia can have a profound effect on young and old, in the home and at school or work. We are going to explore the topic today with our guest Jamie.

Can we separate myth from fact and navigate a journey to successfully deploying the technology to make a real difference at work?
