My last post focused on decision-making skills, which are critical to a leader’s success. How do you make decisions? Generally speaking, extroverts like to talk things out…and “think out loud”…while introverts may quietly analyze the data or what’s being said.
When I was in NASA’s Leadership Development Program nearly seven years ago now, I was encouraged to “be loud” and make sure my “voice was heard.” At the same time, I read Tony Dungy’s book Quiet Strength, which suggested that maybe my more comfortable leadership style and approach could also be effective.
About a year ago, I read Susan Cain’s Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking – the acclaimed New York Times bestseller. In fact, our office even held a monthly discussion about the book over 4 months. There are many insights to glean from Cain’s research and conclusions that will help you as a leader shooting for the stars!
