An insightful, empowering guide to making the most of your hidden strengths.
 
Are you energized by spending time alone? In meetings, do you need to be asked for your opinions and ideas? Do you tend to notice details that other people miss? Is your ideal celebration a small get-together rather than a big party? Do you often feel like a tortoise surrounded by hares?
The good news is, you’re an introvert. The better news is that by celebrating the inner strengths and uniqueness of being introverted, The Introvert Advantage shows introverts how to work with instead of against their temperament to enjoy a well-lived life. Covering relationships, parenting—including parenting an introverted child—socializing, and the workplace, here are coping strategies, tactics for managing energy, and hundreds of valuable tips for not only surviving but truly thriving in an extrovert world.
 
“Filled with Aha! moments of recognition, Dr. Laney’s book will help millions of introverts understand why they are misunderstood, learn to appreciate who they are, and develop a just-right life in a world where extroverts once ruled.” —Paul D. Tieger, coauthor of Do What You Are
“In a world of shock jocks, screaming rock stars, and sensational journalism, this book dispels the myth that only the loud and flamboyant get ahead. Its clear, step-by-step advice will help introverts recognize and capitalize on their unique strengths.” —Dr. Bernardo J. Carducci, author of Shyness: A Bold New Approach

      This self-help guide for introverts boasts a wealth of knowledge from expert-in-the-field Laney, who offers countless tips on how to embrace being an introvert, and how those with introverted friends or family can better understand and appreciate them. Delivered in a straightforward and simple manner, Tamara Marston’s narration makes the material relatable and informative. Though clearly not an introvert, Marston is able to identify with her audience, making her reading all the more effective and intimate. The result is a helpful, enlightening, and entertaining listen that offers advice to introverts on everything from sex to socializing. And even those listeners who aren’t introverts will almost surely know someone who is.
