For general terms and conditions go to: WHO SHOULD ATTEND Managers with a preference for introverted behavior or managers who are looking for ways to build on the strengths of their introverted employees INDIVIDUAL KEY BENEFITS The participants will be better able to make use of the benefits of being an introvert in leadership positions. They will not only gain a deeper understanding of their natural qualities but also how these strengths actually equip them with the capability to lead their teams successfully in a fast-changing and complex world. By enabling them to act and interact in experiential settings and offering chances for feedback and reflection, we will help our participants enhance and strengthen their skills. Furthermore, they will develop strategies to better handle real-life challenges with the help of their peers and coaches. ORGANIZATIONAL BENEFITS This program offers organizations the opportunity to stop following the stereotypes about who an effective leader is or what good leadership looks like, and rather support the development of all managers who can potentially create value including those who are not actively grabbing the spotlight. The Energy of the Introverted Leader is designed to support introverted leaders in becoming even more effective with both extraverted and introverted followers. It gives organizations the chance to enrich their leadership culture and broaden the diversity of thinking and acting in the managerial ranks.

4 Research shows that action-oriented managers who talk assertively and behave dominantly are not only more likely to emerge as winners in selection and promotion processes but are also perceived as being more effective by both supervisors and subordinates. We live in a world that appreciates extraverted behavior. However, recent studies are increasingly showing that extraverted leadership is not the only way to get things done effectively in organizations. Moreover, it can become a liability that undermines the performance of employees and teams. There is an increasing understanding that we need to make better use of introverted leadership as well. As innovative companies strive to give employees more voice, more opportunities to shape decisions, and more responsibility in interactions with customers, introverted leadership working from behind the scenes becomes particularly relevant. With this program, we want to demystify extra- and introversion and show that both personality preferences can contribute to powerful leadership behavior. We will explore how introverted leaders while staying within their natural strengths can make use of their qualities more effectively and develop a calm but powerful voice and stance in an extraverted world. Our participants will also get the opportunity to hone their leadership skills in a number of experiential settings. They will be able to reflect on the impact they are making and refine their strategies for dealing with critical situations. TOPICS INCLUDE Making sense of extra- and introversion in light of new research on leadership Leading in a rapidly changing and increasingly complex world sharpening the advantages of introverted leadership Mastering critical leadership situations turning feedback and reflection into action Developing strategies to leverage the strengths and qualities of introverted leaders with the help of peers and coaches METHODS We have designed an experience-based program for managers who want to become better leaders. As a result, ILP relies on methods specifically chosen for this group, including mini-lectures, case studies, class discussions, peer consultations, group coaching, role plays, and group work.
