Episode 31: Understanding Loud or Quiet Team Members featuring Megumi Miki
Show Notes
I’d like to begin this episode by acknowledging the land that I am learning and living on is the traditional un-ceded, un-surrendered territory of the Anishnaabeg Algonquin People.
When you think of quiet team members, what are your first thoughts about them as leaders? The odds are that the first words are not strength, powerful, or any of the words we often associate with the larger-than-life leaders that most often appear in the headlines.
Also, what if I told you that unconscious biases about introverted leaders, either as an introvert or extrovert, have impacted your professional life? It has, I guarantee it.
I have good news, in this episode, I’ll be talking to Megumi Miki, a leadership consultant, world-renowned speaker, and author of Quietly Powerful, the Australian Career Book and Leadership Book for 2020, who will help us see the raw potential of the emerging leaders who choose to quietly lead from the trenches.
