Hi —
I would say that it’s not terribly unusual for a company to pay for coaching for its employees. There are a couple of paths you can go down: you can go down the accommodation path or you can go down the path of asking for coach to help you improve your productivity or effectiveness on the job. If you go down the accommodation path, you might check into the job accommodation network – http://askjan.org/media/adhd.html. They have some information that might be helpful around accommodations. if you go down the improve your productivity or effectiveness on the job path, think about the ways that you think a coach can help you. If you’ve explored working with a particular coach, you can enlist the help of the coach in highlighting some of the benefits. In requesting the help of a coach, you could also ask for a coach without actually mentioning ADHD. Just requesting a coach to help you in certain areas. Often, a few months with a coach is cheaper than some of the more expensive seminars or classes.
Best of luck.
