Abstract
Book Review: Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking
Highlights
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Organizational Psychology, a section of the journal Frontiers in Psychology
This quote is an excellent reflection of the author’s focus in the book “Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can’t Stop Talking,” by Susan Cain. The author discusses her view that introverts are highly undervalued, in leadership positions. She holds the belief that extroverts are rated as “smarter, better-looking, more interesting, and more desirable,” and that introversion is considered a “second-class personality trait” (Cain, 2013)
This work has important implications for many fields that are heavily dependent upon good leaders, as great emphasis has traditionally been placed on the importance of extraverted characteristics for leadership success
