The ATLAS Guide to Leadership for Introverts in Higher Education

Based on ATLAS' popular workshop, The Introvert's Guide to Academic Leadership, this guide explains the nature of introversion and why it's so common in higher education. Practical tips are provided on how to make small talk, use the strengths of introverts to your advantage, deal with extraverts in the workplace (including your boss), and balance your academic team. Introverted academic leaders are presented with a wide range of strategies that can make them more successful, and both introverts and extraverts are given advice to make co-existence easier. This new, second edition contains a greatly expanded text, a new section on how introverts should deal with confrontation, more case studies, a role play on introversion and extraversion, and a new, more attractive layout.
