Leading Teams

Challenges

  • adjusting to leadership of a new team can take time, as introverted leaders rely heavily on one-to-one relationships

  • introverted leaders tend to take time to trust people

  • introverted leaders can unwittingly appear unfriendly and uncaring to people who do not know them well

  • it can be comforting, given the choice, to build a team of other introverts, but this can have limitations.
The research for the toolkit was supported by South Central Strategic Health Authority and the Welsh Government. Please acknowledge when using the materials.
