#401 - How Introverts Can Win in the Workplace Love, Happiness and Success with Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby

    • Relationships

Introverts are the unsung heroes of the workplace. They're thoughtful, analytical, and they excel at working independently. Still, if you have an introverted personality type, getting ahead at work can be a challenge. This podcast episode is going to tell you how to leverage your introvert superpowers (because I promise, you have them) and WIN in the workplace as an introvert. 
Although introverts can be assets to a team, they struggle with visibility. They may hesitate to speak up in meetings and spend lunch hours munching a salad in their car rather than socializing with coworkers. Unfortunately, upper management might mistake your introverted personality for disengagement or even disagreeableness. But there are steps you can take to make your voice heard, highlight your accomplishments, and connect with your colleagues, all while staying true to YOU. 
Tune in to learn about:
05:42 Career Paths for Introverts
09:21 Tapping into Your Introvert Superpower
12:09 Signs of a Mismatched Career
16:23 The Impact of Negative Feedback 
21:40 Finding Balance as an Introvert
