Leadership Personalities: Extrovert, Introvert or Ambivert?
Journal Title: International Journal Of Management And Economics Invention - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 9
Abstract
This paper endeavors to expand the idea put forth by practitioners and some scholars that a leader must be an extrovert to be a good leader. It will provide examples of very successful and well-known leaders that have excelled as leaders even though they are introverts. Finally, the paper endeavors to educate the reader on the importance of understanding why introverts can be successful leaders, and why there are some situations in which introverts are more capable leaders than their extroverted counterparts. In addition, the concept of ambivert will be introduced and how ambiverts fit a model of good leadership based on their personality type.
