Introverts and Extroverts: Managing Their Differences To Maximize Productivity

The concept of introverts and extroverts has been around for over 100 years. But over time we've developed some serious stereotypes and misconceptions about the two personality types, like:

Introverts are shy
Extroverts make the best salespeople
Introverts aren't good managers
Extroverts are more creative
Introverts hate meetings

It's not that simple.

But, once you know the real differences between the two, it's not all that hard.

Inside this fast-read, 28-page report, you'll discover the differences (backed by science), how to determine who is who – and the different ways to work with them to maximize their workplace potential.
