Listen now
Description
Introverts are the unsung heroes of the workplace. They're thoughtful, analytical, and they excel at working independently. Still, if you have an introverted personality type, getting ahead at work can be a challenge. This podcast episode is going to tell you how to leverage your introvert superpowers (because I promise, you have them) and WIN in the workplace as an introvert.  Although introverts can be assets to a team, they struggle with visibility. They may hesitate to speak up in meetings and spend lunch hours munching a salad in their car rather than socializing with coworkers. Unfortunately, upper management might mistake your introverted personality for disengagement or even disagreeableness. But there are steps you can take to make your voice heard, highlight your accomplishments, and connect with your colleagues, all while staying true to YOU.  Tune in to learn about: 05:42 Career Paths for Introverts 09:21 Tapping into Your Introvert Superpower 12:09 Signs of a Mismatched Career 16:23 The Impact of Negative Feedback  21:40 Finding Balance as an Introvert 24:19 Why Introverts Kick a$$ in the Workplace 26:30 The Value of Introverted Leaders 30:05 How to Step Out of Your Comfort Zone 31:29 Self-Acceptance vs. Functioning in the World 38:23 Normalizing the Introvert Experience And more!
