“People who prefer quieter, more minimally stimulating environments.” That’s how Susan Cain, author of the book Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking, defines introverts. Introverts are mistakenly seen as people who are shy or do not enjoy social interactions. Instead, introverts are simply people who relax by being by themselves. They also tend to observe before acting. Is it possible for people with introverted personalities to lead? Absolutely! Introverts can make excellent leaders by leveraging the very traits that define them. Tareka sat down with Leadership Coach Terrance Lee, AKA The Introvert Leader, to dig into how the introverted professional can lead, and what extroverts need to know about their introverted colleagues. Terrance helps introverts grow as leaders, and during this episode he is sharing tips and strategies for introverts that may be struggling with being visible and stepping into their ability to lead. Whether introvert, extrovert, or somewhere in-between, this is a must listen episode.
