You Go, Girl!

Here is a fantastic piece just posted on the Harvard Business Review on line.  The writer, Meredith Fineman of FinePoint Digital PR is an up-and coming-entrepreneur and very talented young woman.  And yet, she is not the extrovert that you would expect in such a wildly competitive business.  Are you?

Do you think that not being an extrovert is an impediment to business?  As more of an introvert, does it make you uncomfortable and wondering what opportunities you are missing?  Are you just one of only a few people who are wired this way?

Find out more by reading the article.  Specifically, find out if you may be an ambivert—didn’t even know that there was such a thing!  AND I think I may be one!

So much to learn here from Meredith and from Susan Cain, author of the best-selling book Quiet:  The Power of Introvert in a World that Can’t Stop Talking, who Meredith interviewed for the article.

In the interests of full disclosure, I am delighted to say that Meredith Fineman does public relations consulting for Best Friends at the Bar, and I could not be happier to have found her.  Her star is rising, and I am watching!

You go, Girl!
