Listen now
Description
In this episode, we dive into how introverts can totally crush it as exec leaders, despite the common misconceptions that often hold them back. With nearly half the population identifying as introverted, it’s surprising that only 25-30% of today’s CEOs are introverts. We’ll explore the unique strengths introverts bring to leadership and how you can actually outshine extroverts in areas like team management, strategy, and long-term vision. You'll get practical advice on building real connections, finding advocates who support your growth, and embracing your introversion as a leadership asset. If you’re aiming for senior roles while staying true to yourself, this episode is packed with tips to help you get there. Let’s change the narrative and empower more introverts to take on executive and senior leadership positions! Hannah Šoša (Host): Awfully Quiet Podcast Subtle Careers
