There are several literatures that explore the temperament of introversion. In fact, several studies and theories have been considered over the years on introversion. But then again, remains to be given less significance in the society, be it inside the boundaries of our home, four corners of a classroom, the bullpen concept in our workplace and even to our common locale.
It is mainly because we live in a culture that is built on individualism and the importance of citizens speaking their mind. Hence, extroversion is placed on a pedestal and is thought-about as the best way to go into a diverse world such as ours.
On the first day of graduate school, we were presented with a customized report for a personality trait specifically the Big …show more content…
Adam Grant a professor in the University of Pennsylvania Wharton School of Management where his research exposes to quote in verbatim Susan Cain as she stated in her 2012 Ted Talks in California where introverted leaders often deliver better results. They are better at engaging proactive employees work with their creative ideas while extroverts can unconsciously put their stamp on things and not realize that other people's opinions are not being heard.
Cain campaigns for support, towards a revolutionary approach that would go beyond the traditional perspective of leadership in the personality continuum. Also, she places an active call to welcome and aim for understanding individuals who gravitate energy from their inner world of thoughts, sentiments and impressions.

For me, leadership is a state of mind. It cannot be determined on a personality continuum scale – whether one is an extrovert or an introvert. Instead, the individual must have the exact disposition, inclination and expertise to be able to address several issues that might arise in an organization. In addition, the leader should possess integrity that would help command trust and commitment within collaborators, colleagues and even the community. A great and effective leader is the one that can influence people and make things happen.
I would like to end the presentation by reading a manifesto that would best encapsulate Susan Cain’s thoughts on Introverts.
1. There is a word for “people who are in their heads too much”: thinkers.
2. Solitude is a catalyst for innovation.
3. The next generation of quiet kids can and must be raised to know their own strengths.
4. Sometimes it helps to be a pretend extrovert. There will always be time to be quiet later.
5. But in the long run, staying true to your temperament is key to finding work you love and work that matters.
6. One genuine relationship is worth a fistful of business cards.
7. It’s OK to cross the street to avoid making small talk.
8. Quiet leadership is not an oxymoron.
9. Love is essential; gregarious is optional.
10. Finally, a timeless quote from Mahatma
