Ep 256 Navigating Extravert Settings
Manage episode 462595512 series 2991773
With so much noise around us in both work and social settings, how do we quieter ones function effectively?
Drawing from my nearly 50 years of corporate experience, I discuss societal biases towards the extravert ideal that starts in childhood and extends through education and professional environments. It's these settings and other's expectations that often pressure we introverts to significantly alter our behaviour which potentially harms our wellbeing.
I believe it is imperative therefore for we introverts to understand the personal cost of sacrificing our authentic self for the sake of conforming to an ideal that is not ours. We can still use our introvert strengths like thoughtful problem solving and meaningful listening effectively without succumbing to external pressures.
So how do we set social boundaries while remaining nonconfrontational in order to prioritise our wellbeing? Let's explore!
*** Key Points ***
- Maintain authenticity amidst societal biases.
- Embrace introverted strengths confidently.
- Set boundaries assertively in all contexts.
*** Resources ***
