There are a quite a number of books out there on introverts, but I believe you will be hard pressed to find a better one than this. The author shows us how to turn introversion into a strength through examples and stories. It also provides introverts with reasons to be optimistic about the future by delving into how they can use their writing skills to good use in the increasingly influential world of social media.

Introverts are critical to an organization’s success. To date, there hasn’t been a ‘playbook’ to unlock the superpowers of the introvert at work. Without unlocking the introverted voice, companies cannot achieve their full potential. Breaking down how to assess your current culture and how to hire, lead, and communicate in a world with both extroverts and introverts while getting the best out of both styles–this is the magic within this book.”

People usually pay attention to whoever speaks the loudest, so most workplace cultures cater to extroverts. But just as there’s a business case as well as a moral case to pursue gender, racial, and ethnic diversity, it also makes sense to pursue cognitive diversity. In showing how to make workplaces introvert-friendly, Kahnweiler has created a valuable resource for any company that wants to increase its access to talent and broaden the range of view points it brings to key issues and challenges.
