I think that introverts who can fake extroversion make the best leaders. Natural born extroverts are often selfish and can't relate to others on a deeper level - Only on a superficial level (catch phrases and the like).
I think that good leaders need a high level of self-reflection otherwise they will sound like a self-absorbed, out-of-touch jerk - These people are just not motivating to work with.
- trynumber9 11y agoExtroverts self-reflect, form genuine connections and can relate on a deep level. You're thinking, perhaps, of narcissists? But I think even they self-reflect.
- nightcracker 11y agoWhat makes you think extroversion/introversion are related to the capability to self-reflect?
- jonpress 11y agoIt's a personal observation and also a big generalization. I think maybe it's because extroverts often derive their self-worth from their interactions with others instead of basing it on intrinsic characteristics that nobody else can see.
