Don’t forget about the introverts

Sometimes our world expects everyone to jump right in, have an immediate answer, and speak right up. But some people need a little more time to gather their thoughts and contemplate their actions.

In one of my sessions, I noticed that some participants were raising their hands and others were just jumping right in the conversation. I use the personal white boards to even the playing field. I ask questions and have participants write down their answers and hold them up.

Using mini white boards is one way to help everyone in the session feel heard - my introverts, extroverts, and ambiverts.

How are you including introverts in your meetings, sessions, and workshops?
