Embrace who you are, but learn to \u201csprinkle in\u201d a few of the skills of extroverts,\u201d career consultant Jane Finkle \u201986W (Mas) tells self-described introverts.<\/h3>\n

\"\"As a master\u2019s student, I had an opportunity to work at Rochester\u2019s career center. That was really pivotal. I ended up doing a career discovery group, and it just generated such excitement and energy.<\/strong>
\nAfter I finished my program at the Warner School, I got a job at RIT, worked there for about nine months, and then was recruited to work at the University of Pennsylvania. I oversaw the Wharton Career undergraduate program, but I came from a family of entrepreneurs, so it was always in the back of my mind to do private practice. I\u2019ve been in private practice for 12 years.<\/p>\n

American culture leans toward extroversion. And I think that often leaves introverts feeling left out, invisible, or that they may be overlooked for opportunities or promotions.
\n<\/strong>There are many successful introverts, but there are a lot of clients I\u2019ve worked with who are introverted and feel they\u2019re at a disadvantage. And it\u2019s unfortunate, because they bring a lot to the world and the workplace.<\/p>\n

When I first meet with an introvert, instead of saying, \u201cOK, let\u2019s start working on networking,\u201d or some other skill, I always ask them if they\u2019ve ever thought about what\u2019s good about introversion.
\n<\/strong>We have a conversation about the qualities of introversion that are important to the workplace. And that shifts their sense of who they are in a more positive direction. It doesn\u2019t mean introverts don\u2019t have to take some new risks. But the message is, \u201cembrace who you are.\u201d<\/p>\n

I think an important strength of introverts is that they tend to have an ability to concentrate and dig deep.
\n<\/strong>That often results in creative thinking. If you take time to really think things through, you may come up with a great solution to a problem that adds value in the workplace.<\/p>\n

I think that introverts have to be able to integrate, or \u201csprinkle in,\u201d as I often say, some extroverted skills.
\n<\/strong>They don\u2019t have to change who they are, but they do have to learn to speak up, promote themselves, and take initiative. Introverts are sometimes more comfortable behind the scenes. So it\u2019s very important when they\u2019re in a work environment that they keep coworkers and the boss up to date with any tasks, problems, or accomplishments.<\/p>\n

Introverts who are just starting their careers, such as new college graduates, often feel they won\u2019t know what to say. How do I introduce myself to a network contact? How should I prepare for an interview?
\n<\/strong>I think one strategy that works really well for introverts is advanced planning. A lot of introverts don\u2019t enjoy networking, but if they first write a script to introduce themselves, they can use their introvert energy to plan in advance what to say. And often they do just fine with reflection, planning, and practice.<\/p>\n

As they go through their careers, introverts should make sure they\u2019re connecting with people.
\n<\/strong>Sometimes they\u2019re just not aware that they need to spend quality time initiating and building relationships. Maybe things aren\u2019t so great at their job. There are ways to develop themselves outside of that organization, through professional associations, where they might serve on a committee, or a nonprofit, where they could serve on the board. These contacts can prove highly beneficial when looking for new opportunities.<\/p>\n

I think social media is a gift to introverts.
\n<\/strong>They can post articles. They can easily introduce themselves to potential contacts. If they\u2019ve won an award or achieved something special, they can post about it. And they can connect with leaders in their field, all in the comfort of solitude.<\/p>\n

Extroverts have special challenges, too.
\n<\/strong>They tend to think and talk at the same time. Extroverts speak more easily and extemporaneously. But just because you talk a lot doesn\u2019t mean you have the best ideas. I think their challenge is to stop and listen, and to listen a little more mindfully.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px” image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=”no” text_align=”left” background_color=”#e9e5d7″ css_animation=”” box_shadow_on_row=”no”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1561146094827{padding-bottom: 15px !important;}”]Home:<\/strong> Philadelphia<\/p>\n
