Recommendation

Consultant Jennifer B. Kahnweiler spells out how introverts can emerge as better leaders. This second edition of her book – based on ten years of surveys, interviews and case-study analysis – overhauls and expands her original work on the nature, behaviors and leadership potential of introverted professionals. Kahnweiler’s well-informed strategies will open doors for introverted middle managers, tech professionals who need to develop people skills, women who have a hard time getting their bosses to listen and managers who want to bring out the best in their introverted staffers.

Take-Aways

  • Some traits of introversion such as “listening, preparation and calmness are great qualities found in excellent leaders.” 
  • Introversion and extroversion follow a gradient; they’re not either-or choices.
  • Introverts find socializing with large groups of people draining.
