520    In this guide, the author, a career development coach and 
       former business executive explains what it takes to 
       succeed in a workplace dominated by neurotypicals. It 
       covers everything from choosing the right career to 
       deciding whether disclosure is the right option. It 
       features realistic strategies for meeting employer 
       expectations and effectively resolving problems. Examples 
       from coaching clients are used to illustrate common 
       employment challenges and how various techniques are 
       applied in actual circumstances. Situations are described 
       from both the Asperger's and neurotypical point of view so
       that readers understand why problems occur and how to 
       avoid them in the future. The book is designed to be a 
       reference that readers can refer to again and again for 
       guidance on specific job-related topics. The 
       recommendations will benefit individuals who are entering 
       the workforce, as well as those who struggle to maintain 
       employment, or who want to improve their performance and 
       advance their careers.
