The
Introvert Advantage: How to Thrive in an Extrovert World,
by Marti Olsen Laney
One out of every four people feels overwhelmed at the
thought of a business meeting, dreads walking into a party,
hates having to make small talk with strangers, feels alone
in a crowd-and always prefers to sit on the sidelines and
observe. They're introverts, and now comes the book to
buttress their resolve and help them find understanding and
success living in an extrovert world.
Being An Introvert In An Extrovert World will help dispel
introverts' belief that something is wrong with them. It
helps readers understand introversion and shows them how to
determine where they fall on the introvert/extrovert
continuum. It provides tools to improve relationships with
partners, kids, colleagues, and friends, offering dozens of
tips, including 15 ways to talk less and communicate more,
10 ways to thrive at work, ways to take a child's
temperament temperature, and arrival strategies for parties.
Finally, it shows how to not just survive, but to thrive-how
to create a life that's "just right" for the introvert
temperament, to bend and stretch comfort zones in the world,
to keep friends, discover new energy reserves, grow in
spirit, and more. |
