How to Succeed as an Introverted Leader, According to Science: Just Believe in Yourself

How to Succeed as an Introverted Leader, According to Science: Just Believe in Yourself | Tidbits, titbits or tipbits? | Scoop.it
From www.inc.com - October 25, 2017 5:08 PM

From a wealth of real-world examples such as Warren Buffett and Bill Gates to a ton of science and expert opinion, there's no shortage of evidence that introverts can make great leaders.

 

But, of course, quieter types can only demonstrate this fact if they decide to step up to the plate and lead. And according to new research, many introverts may be shying away from leadership positions in which they'd actually excel, because of misplaced fears about their potential and capabilities.

Why is there so much bad management out there? 

 

A common answer is that the system is to blame — dealing with corporate bureaucracy pulls us away from our role as a manager of others, and it doesn’t reward us for being good at that job either. The few that succeed do so despite, not because of, the rules and procedures within which they work.

 

A second view is that there is a form of knowing-doing gap — managers know they should be delegating more and giving credit to others, but they struggle to do so because their default behavioural setting is one of control and self-promotion.

 

Julian Birkinshaw from London Business School examines innovative approaches to seeing the world through the eyes of your employees.

Well, that's an  interesting reframing... lots of entrepreneurs would benefit from a real world experiences how his team is in reality thinking and working... there would be some who would have a joyful surprize... the other lot would me much bigger...

Author quotesPeter Drucker:“The goal (of management) is to make productive the specific strengths and knowledge of each individual”

Read the employee value prop it may make you get out form behind the portals that you lead form and actually touch people that matter for the organization. Nice article.
