Yeah, I'm in a management role and manage people with ADHD. Everyone is different, but what seems to work is getting into a routine. When every day follows a pattern, whatever planning tool you like can work since you can include it in the routine. For example, this could be your day:

  1. Check schedule
  2. Have breakfast
  3. Go to work
  4. Check schedule
  5. Attend any morning meetings
  6. Do work
  7. Morning break
  8. Check schedule
  9. Do work
  10. Have lunch
  11. Check schedule
  12. Do work
  13. Afternoon break
  14. Check schedule
  15. Do work

And so on. Basically, check that schedule throughout the day and have fixed points during the day where you can reset if you get off track.

This is helpful! Thank you!
