About the workshop
In a workplace filled with extroverts, introverts are often overlooked, even the ones in leadership positions. Despite the common perception that extroverts make the best employees, the truth is that 98% of peak performers and up to 70% of highly talented individuals are introverts. However, success in business requires the ability to speak in public, network effectively, and thrive in social settings - skills that don't always come naturally to introverts.
That’s why we developed this workshop - to provide existing or emerging introverted leaders with helpful insights and solid strategies to excel in their roles. Participants will discover how to leverage their unique strengths and use their reflective nature to their advantage. By the end of the workshop, they'll possess a new toolkit of skills and techniques to lead their teams effectively without changing who they are.
