Publisher's Description
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.

“dissolves those myths, providing a logical, step-by-step process for introverts to achieve the same (or even greater) impact than their extroverted peers. Every introvert needs this resource in their library if they want to claim their spot as a top performer in any field!”
“As an introvert, I learned the hard way that trying to be someone you’re not leads to burnout, not success. I wish I’d had the wisdom, insights, and practical steps Mike Bechtle offers in this book years ago. This is a must-read for any introvert who wants to truly thrive in their work, not by changing who they are but by fully embracing their God-given strengths.”
“The most balanced team is one that covers a multitude of strengths and skills. When introverts and extroverts stop competing for space and start filling the gaps, powerful things can happen. Mike masterfully pulls back the curtain on the struggles introverts face in the workplace and offers easy solutions that won’t compromise who you are (or exhaust you in the process).”
“This book is one of a kind. Other books on this subject have convinced us that it’s OK to be an introvert. This one makes it extremely practical, helping us to capitalize on the strengths of our temperament and translate them into success skills for work and life. It’s not a how-to book on how to pretend to be an extrovert; it’s a useful, helpful handbook on being our best selves so we can contribute powerfully and thrive authentically in the world we share with extroverts.”
“to become the best version of ourselves. With a focus on the workplace, the principles in this outstanding book apply to solopreneurs, business owners, executives, managers, team leaders, and employees. In other words, if you’re an introvert with a job, you need to read this book!”
