Introvert Leaders Vs Extrovert Leaders: Review of Leadership Styles


Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, is a prime example of an introvert leader.

Leadership review of extroverts has led to believe that they are energized by external stimuli –
they bring vision, assertiveness, energy and the networks necessary to succeed in a mission.
However, is that all one needs to be a successful leader? President Barack Obama, Mark
Zuckerberg, and Bill Gates are all introverts, and world’s greatest leaders, but is it their trait of
introversion that makes them successful leaders?
The generalization around leadership styles of introverts and extroverts is puny. It doesn’t hold
under scrutiny. For example: How many of you are extroverts and also happen to mull over
before proceeding with a deal? How many of you are extroverts and yet still prefer ‘me’ time?
How many of you are very introverted and also happen to be the life of a party?
Generalization is unimaginably puny. Let’s move on from viewing a group a certain way.
Moreover, research suggests most people are ambiverts, i.e. not on the extreme side of the
scale. Depending on the situation, they display qualities of either introversion or extroversion.
This means that personality can say anything conclusive about leadership capabilities of an
individual.
LEADERSHIP REVIEW: Leaders & Situations
In 2011, Harvard Business School performed a study where college students were asked to fold
a particular number of t-shirts to win an iPod Nano. The group with introvert leaders and
proactive members were 28% more productive than groups with extrovert managers. Harvard

Business School performed the same study in a pizzeria, where he found that stores managers
by introverts were able to successful yield 14% higher weekly profits when proactive employees
participated in brainstorming for improvements.
Groups with introvert leaders and passive members miserably failed because they were
unsuccessful at engaging and motivating each other.
Groups with extrovert managers and proactive members, butt heads so much that they
couldn’t achieve anything. As expected, groups with extrovert managers and passive members,
on the other hand, were able to produce profits but failed to generate new ideas.
This finding is called Dominance Complementarity. A group gets along best when the tendency
to dominate is balanced between leader and the people. When group members are proactive
and take the initiative, champion a better vision and better strategies, introvert managers are at
an advantage. On the other hand, extrovert managers feel more threatened when proactive
employees promote new vision and strategies, and challenge leaders’ authority and
dominance. As a result, extrovert managers tend to be less receptive, and easily shoot down
new ideas and suggestions, discouraging employees from contributing at the workplace.
Introvert managers are more receptive listening to suggestions from team members.
LEADERSHIP STYLES: Types of Personality & Valuable Leadership Skills
Extrovert leaders can be highly effective when members of the team are ideal followers. Being
around people gives them assertiveness. Extroverts’ vision and positive energy gives members a
direction.
Introverts leaders can be highly effective in bringing out the best in others and building
relationships and trust one-on-one. They prefer problem-solving through deep reflection and
internal analysis. They need time to formulate their thoughts, to build up the courage to share
them with the rest of the team members. This encourages extroverts to listen, reflect, and be
open to perspectives of their peers. However, introverts carry an extra burden at workplace – a
stigma that they can never be a successful leader.
Leadership is about is not about whether one is an extrovert leader or an introvert leader. It’s
about vision, passion, and belief in the vision. Organization’s favor logical and decisive behavior
in leadership. Extroversion and introversion are preferences, both bring strengths and
weakness to the table. The downside sometimes can be that extroverts can become too
chameleon-like in their efforts to please others, or too absorbed to lead a group. While,
introverts can become too isolated and internalized.
