Are we talking about an oxymoron here? Can introverted personalities actually be leaders?
I’ve been thinking about the concept of the “introverted,” or “analytical” leader, for a variety of reasons. For one thing, everyday conceptions of leadership revolve around extroverted traits; speak up, take control, direct others, take action, be the energetic, persuasive, even charismatic individual that others “naturally” want to follow.
