Yes, I do believe an Aspie can be a mentor/consultant. Aspies aren't dumb people, and they learn from life. Anybody who learns lessons in life can be a mentor.

My executive functioning skills are not too bad, however I've not really had much chance to improve them with the setting I'm in at the moment, I work best when I have a goal and I'm left to complete it without the dictation of management etc, so yeah you could say I'm self motivated etc. I work ana...

Hey all, First post so here goes nothing! I'm going to try and get to the point the best I can here as it's a rather complicated topic. Can an aspie be a Couch/mentor/consultant? the reason i'm being mildly vague about what exactly im calling it is that I haven't exactly what title i'd give said car...
