\n

Contrary to a widely held belief, having an extroverted temperament is not necessarily the key to success at work. Today, many people feel they are more introverted: between one-third and one-half of the population is affected.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Being introverted is considered an important personality trait by psychologists and behavioural coaches. Unlike extroverted individuals, who turn to others for stimulation, introverted people tend to be centred on their own thoughts, feelings and moods. In other words, while extroverts draw their energy from socialising, introverts must, on the contrary, spend theirs and put in greater effort to maintain social interactions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

This is why introversion is often confused with shyness or a love of solitude. However, this view is mistaken: many introverts are actually very comfortable in social settings, but it is simply not what draws them. Introverts tend to be more reserved and introspective than extroverts, maintain a smaller number of relationships, and tend to think more before speaking.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

What can introverts bring to the workplace?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

1. Introverts are reflective<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Introverted individuals have a very calm and composed temperament. They think before acting, possess a strong analytical mind, and take the time to observe the situation. In meetings or brainstorming sessions, introverts generally put forward carefully considered, well-thought-out and productive ideas. This quality proves particularly useful in a stressful environment<\/strong>, when the atmosphere in the workplace is tense, as introverts know how to keep their cool and remain rational.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

2. Introverts are comfortable working alone<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

For introverted individuals, being autonomous and managing their own projects is important. This means that introverted employees are generally capable of motivating themselves; they do not need to wait for others to inspire them<\/strong> and can take initiative without constantly seeking their manager\u2019s approval. Having introverts in the team allows the company to delegate tasks more easily, with the confidence that they will be completed on time. This frees up attention for other productivity factors that require more focus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

3. Introverts are good listeners<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Good communication is essential to success at work, and knowing how to listen to others is key. Although introverts may appear disinterested or hesitant, they demonstrate excellent listening skills and pay close attention to their colleagues, always showing genuine interest in the people they interact with. They are therefore capable of building strong one-to-one relationships with their colleagues and are inclined to create an effective collaborative network.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

4. Introverts can be great leaders<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

For introverted individuals, being part of a close-knit team matters greatly. Rather than seeking to fulfil their own ambitions, introverts generally remain focused on the company\u2019s objectives and are determined to see their team succeed. Although more than 60% of senior executives worldwide display an extroverted temperament, a study<\/a><\/strong> reveals that extroverted leaders can actually \u201cweigh on a company\u2019s performance\u201d, particularly if their employees are also extroverted. Indeed, extroverted individuals can be so enthusiastic about sharing their ideas that they forget to listen to others\u2019 contributions. Introverted leaders are not closed to proactive employees<\/strong> and do not feel threatened by them, but instead try to make the most of their input.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

5. Introverts provide a balance<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Extroverted individuals are generally dynamic and full of energy. They seek to build friendly relationships and enjoy being the centre of attention, unlike introverts. For this reason, it is essential to draw on both complementary personalities. For example, introverts, who are thoughtful by nature, ensure that a variety of ideas are put to the action-oriented extroverts. Extroverts, in turn, share their enthusiasm and encourage introverts to connect with others. It has been proven that ensuring this balance results in a workforce with higher success rates and productivity, in which each individual feels valued and has the opportunity to thrive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

If you pay attention to their insights, introverts can be a real asset to your company\u2019s working environment. As Susan Cain<\/a><\/strong> has stated: \u201cIntroverted individuals have great strengths: they will help you think deeply, develop strategies, solve complex problems, and identify early warning signs of difficulties.\u201d So why wait? It\u2019s time to harness the strengths of your introverted employees.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
