Event Name:
Quiet Leadership: Foster your identity as an introverted or quiet leader to inspire beyond words


Competency:
Leadership

Description:
The ideals set upon leaders puts pressure on the typical introvert to be someone they are not, which can lead to anxiety and avoidance or pursuing higher positions. But being a quiet leader challenges extroverted norms and expectations. Quiet leadership combats the idea to be a successful leader you have to be loud and promotes a healthier and more successful working environment. Through modesty, humility and action, quiet leaders focus on individual aspirations and talents, inspiring others through guidance, encouragement, and authenticity.
 
Learning Objectives:
  • Identify stereotypes that plague leadership expectations
  • Learn how to influence others without changing who you are
  • Discover how being a quiet leader is compassionate and promotes understanding
  • Develop skill in creating work environments that inspires collaboration
