A great article was published in the Guardian recently about the relatively high incidence of dyslexia in entrepreneurs.
Check out these stats:
- 35% of company founders in USA identified themselves as dyslexic
- 20% of the UK’s business self-starters have the condition
The journalist interviews researchers who study this phenomenon, and a handful of dyslexic entrepreneurs who have made it big because of their reading difficulties.
Definitely a recommended read!
