According to a Harvard Business Review Study, 40% of executives and leaders are introverted. Korn Ferry completed a similar study, and in their study, they found that 40-50% of leaders are introverted.
So, what does this mean? It means that it is important to talk about this because if you are an introverted employee or people leader at work, the chances are that someone you work with is as well.
Just like many of us land in leadership roles without training and fake it until we make it, it can be similar to an introvert. In a working world that is designed for extroverts, it can be difficult for introverts to navigate. My guest today, Julianna Yau Yorgan, a self-proclaimed introvert, former corporate leader, and career strategist and coach, provides us with guidance on how to do just that.
During our conversation, Julianna and I discussed:
The difference between a career strategist and a career coach.
Her journey to a director-level role while being an introverted leader.
The difference between introversion and shyness.
How to network successfully as an introvert.
How we can get to a place where we are unapologetically introverted.
Navigating various difficult personalities at work as an introvert. We chat about narcissists, backstabbers, and more.
Julianna also shares what her Introverted Leader Community is all about.
