Thu, Mar 05
|Virtual Event
Founders are wired for momentum. Big ideas, rapid pivots, constant problem-solving. But that same wiring can make focus, prioritization, and follow-through harder as companies scale.

About the Event
In this AFN Fireside Chat, Matt Sitter sits down with Eliza Sharrah, founder and CEO of Catalyst Partners Consulting, to explore a topic that keeps surfacing across founder and executive communities: the perks and pitfalls of neurodivergent leadership, and how to strategically leverage AI to future-proof a business.
An estimated 72% of business owners identify as neurodivergent. That reality brings both powerful advantages and real challenges. With always-on technology and rapidly evolving AI tools, the question is no longer whether founders should adapt.
Together, Matt and Eliza will unpack:
• How ADHD helps - and hurts - founders as companies grow
• Where AI can support focus, prioritization, and execution (and where it can overwhelm)
• Practical ways to design systems that work with your brain, not against it
