  • ADHD - Trend or Truth?

Popular Talks by Sarah J. Ennor

  • Everything you’ve always wanted to know about the “neurotypical” brain but were afraid to ask.

    Would it surprise you to know that at least 70% of the population may not be neurodivergent at all? And that’s just the percentage we know about! This group is often referred to as “neurotypical” because their brains only allow them to relate to time, show empathy, manage their emotions,…

  • Performance anxiety to high performance

    We’ve all walked into a performance review yearning for firm direction. How often have we left with nothing but vague hints? That’s the curse of subjective feedback. It’s confusing, not clear. Feels personal instead of helpful. Giving actionable feedback is a skill. It takes practice, especially when we are busy,…

  • Employees are just clients that you pay.

    It’s easy to see the employment relationship as a one-way street. We’re taught to presume a power imbalance, usually with employers on top. Employees work best when they feel supported and confident. What if we could stop the see-saw of supply and demand by mirroring the client journey with our…

  • Brought to you by the Letter F: fixing frustrating feedback

    Formal reviews feel burdensome when we’re full-out. But folks with ADHD can falter without a formula to follow. Having difficult conversations is, well, fraught! Reviewees fancy flattery – yet fear failure, fretful we’re frauds. Reviewers face firm pressures and may flail for empathy when fixated on flustering flaws. It’s easy…

  • What Aussie Rules taught me about leadership.

    Coaching a winning team doesn’t end after selection. Leading humans is more than sitting back and watching your skilled players score. You’ll be juggling egos, energy levels, and the occasional dust-up. From the overconfident rookie to the quiet star, everyone is trying their best. Great leaders don’t force uniformity. They…

  • Neuroinclusion 101: ADHD in the workplace.

    ADHD is often stigmatized as an excuse for laziness and misbehaviour. Yet high perforamnce workplaces often attract people with ADHD. Maybe ADHD isn’t what we think! Every person with ADHD experiences different symptoms and strengths. Many rely on the support of others to thrive at work. What makes a high…

Biography

Sarah Ennor makes ADHD human and profitable.

Sarah’s always been a bold, unique personality with plenty of confidence and presence. As a securities lawyer in a corporate setting, she felt pressure to “fit in.” Praised for her technical skill, managers viewed her personality as too confident, too ambitious – just too much!

An adult diagnosis of ADHD opened Sarah’s eyes. She is energetic, ambitious, and fearless for a reason! She can also see how she could have been more self-aware, helping her employer to support her unique traits. Her work, life, and international athletic career in Aussie Rules Football were all helped and hindered by her ADHD.

Using her unfolding story (+humour), Sarah brings the human experience of ADHD in the workplace to life. She argues we get better decisions, service, & outcomes when we seek to understand, accept, and work WITH difference – of any kind! We also get more belonging, retention, clients…and profit!

Sarah gives your boards, leaders, employees, clients, and conference attendees a deeper understanding of what ADHD is and how it shows up at work. They’ll look at ADHD brains and behaviours through a whole new lens. Everyone leaves with actionable next steps, concrete strategies, and practical resources. She highlights the positives of ADHD – the creativity, curiosity, and energy that make us an asset to any team. Get the best results as a team with simple tools to support yourself and your colleagues.

She has practiced law since 2007. Sarah articled at Gowlings and held progressively senior in-house roles at Scotiabank and Bank of Montreal. She moved into sole practice in 2017 and is the founder of Growth Counsel. Fun fact: Sarah is a world champion in Australian Football and represented Canada from 2011-2020.

What clients say about Sarah J. Ennor

"Thanks Sarah! I am a fan of the Sarah Show. ... I will be sure to pass your name and information on to others in my network. You have a powerful voice, an important message, and I can now say from experience that you have the ability to tell stories that challenge and transform people for the better." Lawyer, The Process Legal
"Sarah Ennor delivered an incredibly powerful presentation to the Rotary Club of Kingston, transforming the stigma surrounding ADHD and neurodivergence. Her vulnerability and personal stories deeply connected with the audience, making it one of the most moving presentations our club has experienced. It resonated with me profoundly and helped to even clarify aspects of my own life." President, Rotary Club of Kingston
"Unforgettable.  Smart.  Energetic.  Creative.  Collaborative.  Ethical.  Able to see both forest and trees.  Enterprising.  An ideas generator.  And fun.  Not what I expected of a lawyer and financial professional, but exactly what you get with Sarah Ennor.  I met Sarah to brainstorm, develop a presentation, and deliver a continuing education course on possibly one of the driest topics on earth – Sarah kept the audience engaged, talking, and learning.  She brings her knowledge of business, the law, personal experience, and passion to everything she does, and can do anything she sets her mind to.  Sarah’s just the person you or your company or peers need once you’ve realized that continuing to do what you’ve always done, and thinking the way you have always thought, won’t give you more satisfaction or lead you to new heights.  Sarah will offer you the options you need." Lead, Communications – Canadian Capital Markets Association
"Somehow Sarah brought compliance to life for our national advisor network. She instinctively understood the audience's priorities. Her presentations focussed on enhancing the customer experience to support sales, rather than lecturing on regulatory changes. Sarah was a thoughtful business partner, easy to work with, and entertaining and engaging on stage. She adapted to each of our thirteen markets, and was a seamless addition to the roadshow team. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again." Managing Director, Head of Intermediary Distribution & National Accounts, BMO Global Asset Management
"Sarah is very down to earth and shared personal anecdotes with us, making the session very relatable for those of us in the legal field!" Cassandra McDonald
"I liked how Sarah's talk engaged with questions about what ADHD is and what obstacles it presents for people. I found this discussion made the talk helpful and accessible for me as a person who doesn't have ADHD (or at least doesn't have a formal diagnosis). I also liked how she engaged with the question of how to balance 'personal accountability' with the need to make systemic change." Sarah Dawson
