In this groundbreaking new playbook, the Editor-in-Chief of Science offers a radically different vision of what great leadership looks like today, revealing how autistic thinking--long misunderstood--can lead to stronger, more innovative leadership in our increasingly complex world.

We've heard it all before. Firm handshakes. Strong eye contact. Charisma. Working the room. For too long, these traits have been heralded as the hallmarks of a good leader. But in today's rapidly changing world, checking the boxes no longer equals success. In Leading with Autism, Holden Thorp, the Editor-in-Chief of the Science journals, makes a bold new case: autistic thinking, long misunderstood and underestimated, can offer a powerful new framework for reimagining leadership in today's world.

After receiving an unexpected autism diagnosis at the age of 53, Thorp began to see his mind and his career through an entirely new lens. As he set out to learn everything he could about his diagnosis and the concept of neurodiversity, he discovered that autistic traits so often labeled as challenges--like unshakable concentration, reliance on strict routines, or overly-direct communication--were not liabilities or deficits, but strategic, unique strengths he could leverage to sharpen his decision-making, clarify priorities, and build greater trust with colleagues.

Drawing on the latest cutting-edge scientific research, candid reflections from his own career, and interviews with experts across industries, including Brene Brown, Simon Baron-Cohen, Temple Grandin, Agnes Callard, Leland Vittert, and more, Thorp empowers readers to tap into the power of neurodivergent thinking.
