Introvert Extrovert Podcast
Introvert Extrovert is a study of personality psychology that aims to improve inter-
personal communication and self-awareness, with the ultimate objectives of self-
actualization and personal development. While various personality tests, such as Myers
Briggs, are mentioned from many philosophical points of view, family, relationships,
friendships, and the absurdity of the human condition are front and centre.
In order to help people better understand themselves and one another and to advance
their own personal development, the book Introvert Extrovert explores the psychology
of personality.
It can seem that extroversion is a preferred trait in the workplace frequently, whether it
be through the value placed on self-assured public speaking or the appeal of strong
networking abilities. What exactly does it mean to be an introvert or an extrovert, and
how does that impact one’s standing at work? Ankit is here to talk about that today.
It’s not always true that “Extroverts are extroverted” and “introverts are shy.” Instead,
pay attention to your ATTENTION and ENERGY and how focused they are on the inside
or outside.
Main Points-:
● Recognising your extrovert or introvert tendencies-:
Ankit acknowledges that it took him some time to discover that he is an introvert. Scott
places himself somewhere between an introvert and an ambivert, but that admittance
comes with a qualifier because each person’s balance between the two is such a
variable.
The amount of interest you have in engaging with people and the amount of time it
takes for you to recover between social contacts depend on whether you are an
extrovert or an introvert. An introvert will frequently feel out of control and
uncomfortable in a new social setting, while extroverts get their energy from engaging
with those around them.
● Who is more favoured in offices: introverts or extroverts?
According to Ankit, the majority of managers and leaders are extroverted and prefer
having employees in the workplace. However, a lot of introverts relish working
remotely. That leads to an unneeded conflict between these two types of people, one
that can be easily avoided by taking into account what each employee in your company
wants and needs from their workplace.
● How can organisations improve the comfort of either sort of person?
Understanding the viewpoints and goals of the individual is the first step. By accepting
that each party is in a unique position, the second stage is to raise awareness. The third
phase entails getting people involved in some focused training programmes that will
teach them why and how people behave the way they do. The fourth phase is to
establish internal communities that educate individuals about introversion, how it
differs from extroverts, the difficulties they have at work, and how to raise awareness
for everyone.
