The Psychology of Leadership

In this episode of The Myers-Briggs Company Podcast, we’re talking all things Extraversion. Last year for World Introvert Day we recorded a podcast episode all about Introversion, so it’s only fitting that we cover the other side of this preference: Extraversion. Chartered psychologist Catherine Ellwood joins us to talk about how not all those with Extraversion preferences are the same, how one Extravert can look different from another, and more. We’ll also discuss what the most common extraverted personality types are, what people usually get wrong about Extraversion, and share practical tips for those who prefer Extraversion and for anyone who has someone close in their lives with these preferences.
