Being an introverted leader I must have time for myself. I enjoy getting to work before everyone else, which allows me to red my word for the day (daily spiritual readings). In The Introverted Leader, Jennifer B. Kahnweiler has generated a handbook for understanding the trials and opportunities introverted leaders face daily, as well as a proven four-part process for handling one’s own introversion and understanding the introversion of employees and coworkers. Kahnweiler trusts that it is possible to capitalize on a softer, more thoughtful behavior and still become accustomed to a culture that rewards extroversion.
From the book Kahnweiler mentioned that as an introverted person there are challenges that can occur in your life that can aid

    Type Talk Rhetorical Analysis

    Every personality type is different in a work environment. ENFPs, like myself are the “inspirers” according to Psychology Junkie. We are very outgoing, gregarious, hedonistic when being motivated by our desires, and we have a certain panache when it comes to connecting with people. The authors of Type Talk, Otto Kroeger and Janet Thueson state that extroverts “think out loud; they clarify their ideas by sharing them with others, refining them as they speak”.…

    Examples Of Benjamin In Animal Farm By George Orwell

    Animal Farm by George Orwell is a book where animals are often being compared to humans. Almost all of the animals are based off of a Russian historical figure. For instance, Benjamin represents George Orwell or other people who knew better, but more apathetic. Benjamin and I share a lot of similar traits. An example is how he and I are both sarcastic.…

    Personal Narrative: A Thousand Experiences

    A Thousand Experiences Throughout life, individuals face different obstacles and struggles; my obstacle was my tendency to be shy. For example, when I was faced with social pressures like speaking in front of a class for a presentation, or meeting new people, I would be a nervous wreck. My palms would sweat, my voice would tremble, and it took all the strength I could muster to overcome my irrational fears. I only had a small, albeit close knit group of friends due to my introverted ways.…

    Personal Narrative: My First Semester At Miami University

    The experience that I would use to display all of these personal qualities would be my first semester at Miami University. I chose this experience because it has taught me to become comfortable within the uncomfortable and create an environment where I am able to adapt quickly to my surroundings. My first semester at college has made me become more independent, willing to push outside of my comfort zones, open-minded, and able to persevere through isolation. Throughout my first semester at Miami University, I’ve learned to become more independent, through most of the daily responsibilities that I hold.…

    Analysis Of Not Leadership Material By Susan Cain

    Susan Cain’s article “Not Leadership material? Good the world needs followers” explores the controversy in the overemphasis of leadership skills which many argue, especially in college admissions, have emptied their meaning. In this article, the author’s main claim is that a well-functioning society needs followers, anticipating each other’s strengths and weaknesses, utilizing their special skills in their own ways, and it also needs leaders who are called to service rather than to status. The author purpose is to throw the real meaning of leadership into question. This article was published in the Opinion section of The New York Times in March, 2017.…

    INFP Personality Types

    Individuals and their personalities play a very key role in organizational behavior. In order for an organization to function at the highest level of productivity, managers must focus on empowering individuals in order to strengthen the group rather than enforcing autocratic leadership to force the individuals to serve the needs of the group. Managers themselves also need to know their own strengths and weaknesses based on their personality types as well as common strengths and weakness for personality types present in their employees. For instance, a people with an Introversion-iNuition-Feeling-Perception (INFP) personality type might be best motivated for the purpose of serving the well-being of others; however, these same INFP personality…

    Myers-Briggs Personality Reflection Paper

    I was found to exhibit a moderate preference for extroversion over Introversion by 38% (Humanmetrics, Inc. , 2016). I found this result interesting because I personally feel like an introvert, but people are naturally drawn to me. My desire for solidarity is often outweighed by the benefit I perceive in my contributions to the issues I encounter in life; therefore, I chose not to just stand by – I engage! It is rare that I encounter a…

    Weakness Of Authentic Leadership

    The United States faces a leadership crisis as the confidence and trust in leaders has fallen to an all-time low. Only 22 percent of Americans trust our business leaders because of ethical failings and a lack in consistency in words and deeds (Darvish & Rezaei, 2011). Authentic leadership has received a heightened level of research and attention in effort to increase follower satisfaction and commitment in the workplace. Berkovich (2014) recommends a framework of dialogical pedagogy within the organization to develop and support authentic leadership. The strengths of authentic leadership include the increased ability of organizations to obtain higher commitment and performance levels.…

    My Personality Analysis

    The analysis results from the various self-assessments have afforded me the opportunity to notice hidden aspects about myself. I have been able to perform contemplative and thorough self-examinations of my personality in order to determine viable methods to enrich my overall personality. It has been my experience that organizational behavior in many ways are similar to the institutionalized behaviors exhibited by those in orphanages or prisons. The similarities reside in the fact that the workplace is an environment where people from very different cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, ethnicities and religious beliefs find themselves compartmentalized into an environment, directed towards a new way of life and then ordered to play nice…

    Leadership Conference Reflection

    I attended the “Who You Are is How You Lead” workshop that emphasized introverts and how they lead. My leadership style is predominantly extroverted where I am addressing issues head on and trying to complete tasks as quickly as possible. I learned that introverts do not engage problems the same way as I do. In fact, they prefer the exact opposite. Introverts tend to sit back and analyze the pros and cons of every available option before acting.…
