Meetings... interviews... brainstorming... networking... and more... Many of our workplaces are unfavourably biased towards introversion and extroversion is seen as the ideal.
It's often the case that the ones who 'shout' the loudest are the ones who get heard, get the recognition, get the reward, and get ahead. Whilst the quieter ones get overlooked.
Research supports this and shows that extroverts get more opportunities at work because their performance is more visible.
Research also shows that 37% of workers report being treated negatively due to their introversion, rising to 49% in self identified introverts.
It shouldn't be like this.
This episode is a recording of a LinkedIn Audio event where myself and a panel of speakers had a discussion about changing the narrative about introversion in the workplace.
