How does an introvert lead? Introverts don’t fit the stereotypical leadership model in management literature. They’re often unaware of their introvert strengths and how to maximize them in the workplace, much less become leaders. However, Cain, Laney, Kahnweiler, and others have increased our understanding of introversion and how it impacts leadership styles.
This course will explore the recent literature on introversion and the workplace, tools and techniques for discovering introvert strengths, and strategies for leveraging them. Students will identify success factors for introverts in leadership roles and will develop action plans for individual development.
The course combines five weeks of readings and other resources, online discussions, interviews with introverted leaders, and short reflection papers with a virtual workshop on improving verbal communication skills through improvisational exercises.
This course will explore the recent findings on introversion and the workplace, tools and techniques for discovering introvert strengths, and strategies for leveraging them.
