The Introvert's Guide to Success in the Workplace
Thriving at work doesn't require changing who you are - Do brainstorming meetings leave you drained and wishing you'd said more? - Have you been ignored while your extroverted coworkers get praised? - Do you feel like you have to pretend to be someone you're not in order to get ahead? As an introvert, you may feel like the things you're best at--deep thinking, keen observation, focused listening, and strategic planning--are not highly valued in your workplace. But just because your greatest strengths are internal doesn't mean your workplace doesn't need them. In fact, your invisible skills are essential to any business's success! And the key to your personal success is not trying to be someone else but being 100% yourself. Backed by research, case studies, and personal observation, communication expert Dr. Mike Bechtle shows you how to capitalize on your unique strengths so that you can reach your full potential with confidence and authenticity. His simple, actionable advice can change your work life--starting today.

Are you an introvert? If you're happy in your own company most of the time, have just a few really close friends and prefer to work alone, the answer is probably yes. Introverts find external stimulation overwhelming, so they look for ways to retreat from it. A situation that’s easy or fun for one person can be way too much for an introvert. That's fine as long as they have a choice. But that can change when they go to work. Modern working styles like open-plan offices, brainstorming and teamwork can be really hard on introverts. The hands-on work is OK, but the emotional labour of working with others can be draining. Freelancing offers introverts a way out – a chance to work alone, control their workload and create their own workspace. It can be ideal. However, it also takes work. Going freelance means running a one-person business. It means setting direction, organizing your schedule and setting priorities. It means hustling for work and setting prices. And it means building a network that will offer vital support. Doing all that is hard enough for anyone - but particularly for introverts. To make a success of freelancing, you'll need to learn some new skills, push yourself to meet some challenges and build up your confidence. The Freelance Introvert will show you how to make that happen. It will teach you all about creating and managing your freelance business, from setting aims and getting set up to time management, working with clients and marketing.
