4.1
Økonomi & Business
Some people—a sizeable minority— prefer to avoid the limelight, tend to listen more than they speak, feel alone in large groups, and require lots of private time to restore their energy. Often they feel different, not right, less than. But as Marti Olsen Laney proves, that is far from the truth.
The Introvert Advantage dispels common myths about introverts—they're not necessarily shy, aloof, or antisocial—and explains how they are hardwired from birth to focus inward, so outside stimulation such as chitchat, phone calls, parties, or office meetings can easily become “too much.” Most importantly, it thoroughly refutes many introverts' belief that something is wrong with them. Instead, it helps them recognize their inner strengths—their analytical skills, ability to think outside the box, and strong powers of concentration. It provides tools to improve relationships with partners, kids, colleagues, and friends, while offering dozens of tips, including 8 ways to showcase their abilities at work and strategies for socializing. In short, The Introvert Advantage shows introverts how to take advantage of their special qualities not only to survive in an extrovert-oriented world, but to thrive.

Bogen burde hedde, 'How to live an OK life despite being an introvert'. Bogen starter flot med at forfatteren kritiserer hvordan ekstroversion ofte opfattes som idealet og introversion som en karakterdefekt.Desværre falder forfatteren i netop denne fælde. Hun dedikerer hvert kapitel til et område, som introversion gør svært (dating, storsnakkende kollegaer, cocktail parties), men ikke ét kapitel er dedikeret til de fordele (advantages) som man kan have som introvert. Disse nævnes kun som tilfældige sidebemærkninger.Bogen har givet mig en fin forståelse for hvordan min egen (og andres) introversion gør livet svært nogen gange. Men jeg har næsten intet lært om hvilke fordele jeg måtte have som introvert.Skuffende oplevelse 👎
