Kate Griggs, the renowned author, TED X Speaker, and CEO of 'Made by Dyslexia' coined "dyslexic thinking," a term which is now recognised by dictionary.com and LinkedIn.

Her influence spans major corporations like Virgin, Microsoft, and Ernst & Young, where dyslexic thinking is now valued as indispensable skill.

In this chat with Ben, Kate explores how to support dyslexic learners, why 35% of company founders are dyslexic, 40% of entrepreneurs are dyslexic and the power of big-picture thinking.
