<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Win the war for talent! "Champion for introverts" Jennifer Kahnweiler shows how to create inclusive cultures that attract and retain the 40 to 60 percent of the population who identify as introverts"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>This important book offers organizations the keys to introvert inclusion.<br>--Susan Cain, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>Quiet Influence<br></i></b><br><b>The first guide to creating a welcoming culture that maximizes the powerful contributions introverts bring to the workplace.</b> <p/> As the diversity, equity, and inclusion wave widens and deepens its reach, introversion is becoming a natural part of that movement. After all, about half the population identify as introverts, but many organizations are stuck in traditional extrovert-centric workplace cultures that reward people for speaking up publicly, expect them to log face time, and employ hiring and promotion practices rooted in the past. This ultimately discourages introverts from contributing and reaching their full talent potential, which could have a major impact on the bottom line. <p/> Champion for introverts Jennifer Kahnweiler offers a road map for everyone in the workplace--including leaders, human resource managers, and team members--to create inclusive, introvert-friendly cultures. Kahnweiler provides an assessment to determine how introvert friendly your organization is and looks at every aspect of organizational life--hiring, training, leading, communicating, meeting, designing workplaces, and more--through an inclusive lens. <p/>You'll discover how to make open-space offices introvert friendly, what the best practices are for encouraging introverts to participate on teams, which training techniques work best for introverts, and how to make remote positions work.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>This important book offers organizations the keys to introvert inclusion.<br><b>--Susan Cain, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>Quiet Influence</i></b> <p/>"People usually pay attention to whoever speaks the loudest, so most workplace cultures cater to extroverts. But just as there's a business case as well as a moral case to pursue gender, racial, and ethnic diversity, it also makes sense to pursue cognitive diversity. In showing how to make workplaces introvert-friendly, Kahnweiler has created a valuable resource for any company that wants to increase its access to talent and broaden the range of viewpoints it brings to key issues and challenges."<br><b>--Reid Hoffman, cofounder of LinkedIn and coauthor of <i>Blitzscaling </i></b> <p/>"Introverts are critical to an organization's success. To date, there hasn't been a 'playbook' to unlock the superpowers of the introvert at work. Without unlocking the introverted voice, companies cannot achieve their full potential. Breaking down how to assess your current culture and how to hire, lead, and communicate in a world with both extroverts and introverts while getting the best out of both styles--this is the magic within this book."<br><b>--Pat Wadors, Chief Talent Officer, ServiceNow</b> <p/>"A new book provides guidelines for nurturing personality diversity on the job."<br><b>--Sophia Dembling, The Introvert's Corner, <i>Psychology Today</i></b> <p/>"...Kahnweiler offers a road map for everyone in the workplace - including leaders, human resource managers and team members - to create inclusive, introvert-friendly cultures....As a business owner I recommend this book to not only management teams and CEOs, but also to staff and employees.
