This comment resonates so deeply with me. In my opinion, all of the management training completely ignores the one thing that matters - make the company money.

  "In my opinion, all of the management training completely ignores the one thing that matters - make the company money." They definitely don't tie it together explicitly. In my view, much of it implicitly can help the company, but only if it's applied correctly. With my disability, I feel like the canary in the coal mine. My team is a low performing team. I've been identified as a low performing member of that team. Our tests are basically non-existent. We don't have a requirements repository other than JIRA stories. We don't have documentation for most tasks. These things (and more) are common complaints of most team members. It certainly affects their speed and quality. However, with my disability it affects me much more. The company could save money on dev costs if they made some process improvements. Instead, they give me career advice that I need to speed up, ask fewer questions, and that I should look for other roles, including non-technical roles. I guess when I do get fired or leave, they'll have to blame the slow and low quality work on someone or something else...
