Work is so much more than your daily responsibilities: how you work, where you work, who you work with, and how success is measured are crucial qualities that can make or break how you feel about a job. When job hunting, it’s essential to consider how your personality factors into the role — especially if you’re an introvert.
“Introverts often shine when given the space and time to reflect and do deep, focused work,” says Sara Lobkovich, founder of Red Currant Collective and host of the Thinkydoers podcast. “They don’t need to change who they are — they just need to find an environment that allows their natural strengths to flourish.”

This way of working can shift power into the hands of neurodivergent professionals, women of color, introverts, and folks who don’t conform to dominant norms.
