Tapping Your Superpowers | Micki O’Brien | TEDxBellevueCollege

Students who are often labeled as challenging and difficult are actually neurodiverse, a trait educator Micki O’Brien shares. O’Brien strives to recognize the unique gifts of each individual. Our schools and other institutions have the opportunity to support the development of these unique gifts. She shares how to celebrate and build upon the brilliance of this powerful diversity.

Micki O’Brien, M.A., is a trainer, consultant, author and finder of greatness. Experienced in a wide array of educational modalities, she works with students labeled as challenging and difficult. A neurodiverse individual herself, she strives to recognize and build on the greatness of the diversity of unique perceptions.
Micki believes, “Each of us is a unique, individual person with unique, individual gifts. Our schools and other institutions have the opportunity to support the development of these unique gifts. Instead of individuals attempting to fit into the boxes that have been created, at this point in human evolution, we have the opportunity to create and expand our organizations so that we celebrate and build upon the brilliance of this powerful diversity.”
