Self Improvement

Our world constantly demands that we share and interact with others. But what if you're an introvert? How can you get along in a world like that?

We'll learn about what introversion is and isn't, why introversion matters at work and at home, and I'll cover five lifehacks for introverts trying to survive in a world that values extroversion.

But simply surviving isn't good enough - introverts can do better than that because they're part of this world. With a new understanding of themselves and others, they won't just survive.

They'll thrive!

Originally presented at Ignite! Seattle 19 on February 20, 2013 at Town Hall in Seattle, Washington.
