Haveo · Networking when you are ADHD, autistic or dyslexic
Networking with dyslexia
Three things make a networking room harder with dyslexia: badges in small print, notes you cannot take fast enough, and the written follow-up afterwards. Say the name back instead of reading it, dictate your notes instead of typing them, and draft the follow-up by speaking it.
Badges
Nobody reads a badge well at conversational distance, so asking is normal and nobody marks it. "Sorry, say your name again for me?" is a sentence people hear ten times a night.
Then say it back once. Hearing it and saying it puts it somewhere more reliable than having glanced at it.

Notes, without writing
Use dictation. Step aside, hold the microphone key and say "Priya, runs ops at the bakery place, wants a supplier in Leeds." It takes eight seconds and you never spell anything.
A voice memo works the same way. The point is to capture it while it is still in your head, in whatever form is fastest for you.

The follow-up message
This is where most of the cost lands. The message gets delayed because writing it is effortful, and then it is too late to send, and the whole evening is wasted.
Speak it first, then tidy it. Dictate the message as if you were talking to them, then fix what needs fixing. A short, plain message sent on Tuesday beats a polished one that never goes.

If you are asked to read something out
You are allowed to decline without a reason. "I'd rather not read it cold — can you summarize it?" ends it, and nobody investigates.

What Haveo does with this
You can talk to Haveo instead of typing — your phone turns your voice into text, and on iPhone that happens on the device itself. Your intro, your notes and your follow-up can all be spoken rather than written.
