I love this - those who have a preference for introversion tend to have different strengths and need different things to enable their success than those with a preference for extroversion do. Check out these quick tips, particularly the section on empowering introverts!

Great one pager. I’d expand with a few more things. Because many are observant (some might not make eye contact but they see and hear everything), ask broad questions. “What do you see as our biggest challenges?” Some are Inquistive and will go off and do self-study. Offer to walk them through how the business is run. Why. How the reports come together. It is always worth the investment. You will always learn something.

While others are busy talking, quiet people are listening. They’re observant, factual and accurate. Quiet folks counterbalance crowd-mentality thinking and can help their organizations avoid costly miscalculations. Successful teams leverage these powerful skills.

Especially when it comes to #communication, the biggest #myth I have ever come across is thinking that good communicators are outgoing people. And true as that may be, you will find that communicators that #connect, leave an impact, and are remembered are in fact, quite often the very opposite of outgoing. Intelligent communicators have a quite sort of #confidence that they extend to other people first in the form of their #listening, and then in the form of their #wisdom. And that is in fact, what makes them intelligent communicators, and takes them a step beyond in the game of #leadership and connection.

I am grateful for the discussion on how introversion is not a hindrance in the workplace. As a quiet leader, I feel acknowledged in a world where extroversion is often favored. My early career has demonstrated that when we create space for the 'quiet kid', they can truly excel. I have achieved much because my mentors and superiors have utilized tips from this cheat sheet. The corporate realm stands to gain significantly from accommodating introverts. Eric Partaker's cheat sheet is stimulating and pertinent, and I believe it will drive higher productivity and improve talent recruitment strategies. Looking forward to more discourse on this.

I agree. From my experience of leading teams over the years. Very important to hear all views from the wider team not just direct reports. Dominant personalities can take over in discussions or meetings and sometimes it can result in a competition to be the giver of good ideas or good news. Who has the loudest voice….. Managing the quiet thinkers to provide input is a key responsibility and prevents some of the team switching off and reducing their ideas and valuable contribution.

I'm a full-on extrovert but most of my favourite people are introverts. Since becoming an Insights Discovery Practioner, I've been reflecting on how little value our society puts on introversion. Books about 'becoming more extrovert' are ten-a-penny but there's very little on learning introversion. Insights Discovery can help get the best out of every type of thinking - and it makes sure everyone connects for the best results. #TentaclesConsultancy #InsightsDiscovery #Connections
