It's frustrating when a manager tries to push his or her style of communication on me. The worst is when they make me responsible for getting someone else to do something (instead of assigning a task directly to that person) and then tell me to bug that person repeatedly or even go stand behind them at their desk. That's not cool. (Maybe that doesn't even have anything to do with being an introvert. It's just stupid.) If you don't want to implement a sane task management system (or use the one you already have) and the best idea you can come up with is to go stand behind someone at their desk, that's awesome. Do it yourself.
