FOR INTROVERTED LEADERS: Maximizing your impact without losing your “self”
A study by Harvard Business Review found that while extroverts make up about 50% of the population, 96% of the leaders surveyed demonstrated primarily extroverted characteristics. Another study found that only 2% of leaders identify as introverted. We can hypothesize that organizational cultures often default to extroverted characteristics as the model of a successful leader, and even those who are introverted feel pressured follow the extroverted path. This is unfortunate in that introverted leaders are more effective than their extroverted colleagues in some situations.
Leading as an Introvert is not the same as Extroverted leadership.
