Asperger Syndrome Employment Workbook

An Employment Workbook For Adults With Asperger Syndrome.
Through step-by-step self-assessment, the reader is encouraged to engage actively in a self-paced exploration of their employment history, and ultimately to identify the work best suited to their personal needs, talents and strengths. The workbook contains practical exercises, with clear explanations and examples of how to use them. It leads the reader to identify and explore three jobs they have held in different life periods, their interests, skills and talents, and their application to work, their style of learning and style of work, the social skills required by specific jobs, as identified by other people than the autobiographer, the AS characteristics which further and impede work performance, successful and unsuccessful survival strategies, issues around diagnosis and disclosure which affect life at work and outside it, and creative problem solving for the present and the future - a personal wish list.
