N2  - Advocating a person-centred approach to supporting individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), this fully-explained, innovative model shows how to use an individual's strengths to address weaknesses in executive functioning. The author explains how to identify the individual's strengths and weaknesses across eight key areas which are the building blocks of executive functions: attention; memory; organization; time management; initiative; behaviour; goal setting and flexibility. This approach can be used daily to establish predictability and offer a foundation for interpreting, processing and understanding the world with flexibility. Professionals and parents can also use them as the basis of an Individualised Education Plan (IEP), or to create personalised interventions and support at school or at home
