Synopsis

A guide to success taking into account a highly overlooked area of diversity—introversion and extroversion

Most literature on business, communication, and success is focused on extroverts, who feel comfortable networking, talking and being the center of attention. But at least 30% of the population are introverts, and this book can help them find their voice. Using the latest psychological research, and the author's own extensive experience coaching introverts in the workplace, this book is packed with practical advice which is easy to implement. It identifies 10 specific strengths that introverts often have (such as independence, perseverance, and writing), and also identifies 10 specific hurdles they often have to overcome (such as hyperstimulation, intellectualism, and fear of conflict). Readers who have taken the personal journey of Susan Cain's bestseller Quiet and want to know more will find this practical, science-driven guide of particular interest.
