What do you think is common between George Washington, and the Buddha, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and Nelson Mandela, Rosa Parks and Florence Nightingale………
That they were great leaders?
True. But did you know that they were also all introverts?
From Prasenjeet Kumar, the Amazon #1 best-selling author, comes an outstanding collection of uplifting stories of the greatest leaders of all times that have used their powers of introversion to rewrite History.
Most importantly, these leaders succeeded not because they could overcome their introversion, BUT because of their gifted strengths of introversion.
So, ladies and gentlemen, be prepared to immerse yourselves into legendary tales of courage and valour shown by quiet, shy and sensitive men and women from all around the world.
You will read how these quiet leaders faced the biggest challenges and threats of their lives and how they rose from the ashes like the legendary Phoenix bird BUT quietly.
Like a ‘Quiet Phoenix’, as this series of books is called.
Genre: SELF-HELP / GeneralThis book is from an Amazon #1 Best Selling Author.
Dear Quiet friend,
I hope the title of this book would have intrigued you enough to cajole you to preview it a bit.
The theme of this book is if introverts can really lead? And if yes, can they just lead, as any imbecile hereditary heir to the throne is expected to, or provide legendary leadership?
We do live in a society where it is drilled into our heads that in order to successfully lead you must act assertively, boldly and be willing to take the centre stage. In the process, not only do you have to be fine with such ‘qualities’ as arrogance and over-confidence but in some circumstances it is even considered desirable to carefully cultivate such traits.
If you are quiet and shy, you will be asked to overcome your “shyness” or “introversion”. Or forget your dreams of leading anyone.
“Awaken your extroverted self”, they tell you.
Let me clear the misconception right away. Introverts cannot only lead but make outstanding leaders.
For my research, I had to plod through quite a few books and articles on introverts who History recognises as successful leaders. And I was surprised with what I found.
