Being an introvert is not about where you get your energy. It's how you handle stimulation.
Introverts are energized by people too. We’re just easily exhausted by loud parties, close talkers, and endless houseguests.
I'm not antisocial. I'm pro-quiet.

Company culture matters and can make a big difference in employees’ motivation at work. To find out how organizational culture is linked to performance, participate in this global study, and receive the 2021 Global State of Culture Report early next year. bit.ly/3muFQNs

As psychology professor Dr. Barbara Fredrickson points out, generosity “create[s] chains of events that…trigger upward spirals that transform communities.” And who doesn’t want to be a part of that?

Generosity improves our well-being and reduces depression. In one study, people who helped their coworkers were more satisfied with their lives more than 30 YEARS LATER! I’m working on one generous act each day, big or small.

The combination of being effective at driving results AND building relationships is the key for being perceived by others as an effective leader.

Businesses and schools praise multi-tasking, but research clearly shows that it reduces #productivity and increases mistakes. Try creating an interruption-free zone during the day—turn off your email, phone, and social-media sites—and see whether you get more done. #brainrules

Anger and frustration are rarely caused by other people's actions. They're caused by how you interpret their actions.
To change your reactions, question your explanations. You know what they did, but not why. New interpretations pave the way to new emotions.

Caring is not optional. It's a vital skill.
When surgeons lack compassion, they make 3x as many errors.
When doctors show compassion, patients heal faster—they're more likely to take prescribed medication, and less likely to need it post-surgery.

Gaining followers doesn't make you a leader. It just means you've captured attention.
Leadership is the art of uniting individuals to achieve a collective goal.
Great leadership is the art of elevating a group to achieve a worthy goal.

When you discover holes in your ideas, don't hide them. Discuss them openly.
Other people are going to find the flaws in your work anyway.
You might as well get credit for having the foresight to recognize them and the integrity to acknowledge them.

In psychologically unsafe teams, people are afraid to ask for help.
In supportive teams, people are comfortable seeking help and get quick responses.
In generous teams, people proactively offer to help before anyone asks.

Taking someone’s perspective doesn’t help you understand them better. You actually need to get their perspective.
Instead of imagining yourself in others’ shoes, ask them what it's like to walk in their shoes.

In groups, we make the mistake of listening to the people who command the most airtime, instead of the ones who have the most expertise.
One more time: we need to stop mistaking confidence for competence.

Every time you get feedback, ask yourself how well you took it. Even if you got a D- for your performance, you can still get an A+ for how you respond to it.
