All very good points, these can help not just Extrovert managers but Introvert managers as well.

Many Introvert leads on their journey, start acting like Extroverts and when they manage teams they expect everyone to act extroverted because that is how world works. They know it from personal Success.

Everyone who leads should take pointers, thanks for the article.

Thank you! You are so right! I definitely tried to be an extroverted manager in my first leadership role, but it came off as disingenuous.

"because that is how world works"

The western americanized world really. There are cultures where introspective thinkers are more appreciated.
