Word has got around that there are different types of people: those who are loud and extroverted - and those who are more quiet and reserved.

There are many types of "quiet" - and all can be heard

Introverts must live with many prejudices: the silent characters are considered closed, opaque, sometimes even unfriendly or unapproachable.

With her very good book "Silent wins", author Doris Märtin helps the socially reserved people in the Everyday life better to locate and accept. This also applies to the introverts themselves, whom Märtin den Spiegel reproaches: benevolent and constructive, but not uncritical.

Masterminds, Supersensible, Nerds and Cocooner

Good: Martina does not care about breastfeeding breastfeeding. She discovers subtle but elemental differences in temperament, social behavior and attitudes to life.

She identifies four types: masterminds, supersensitive, nerds and cocooners. If you are an introvert, you can find out which ones you belong to right at the beginning in a multiple choice test (“introDNA test”).

Where intros are very strong

Afterwards, you can devote yourself to the advice that is assigned to your category, because the very good read navigation helps you to find the content you really care about.

The author dedicates herself to all intro types in detail, meticulously working on the special features and the respective (hidden) Power out of here. And where there is a need to catch up (job, social events), the author gives practical tips on how to (better) assert yourself in everyday life.

Märtin gives introverts a very strong performance with her book “Silently Wins”. The book is very informative - not only for those "affected", but also for their relatives, colleagues and bosses. They in particular benefit enormously from their silent employees.

It's not about what's better

Discounts for your success (advertising)!

Sylvia Löhken doesn't even bother with the question of whether one or the other is better: She focuses on a completely different aspect: "Intros und Extros" is the name of Sylvia Löhken's new book. She shows in a clear and practical way how introverts and extroverts work well together and how they can be used sensibly according to their respective abilities.

How is it possible to find the appropriate position for the introverts as well as the extrovert among us, where they can feel comfortable and unfold their strengths as far as possible?

Mouth open or Raffel too?

Some “never open their mouths”, even if they have a lot to say, and others “don't shut up”, even if they should listen better.

In each Companys at your destination Employees with different temperaments, cause misunderstandings and sometimes conflicts due to their public image.

Intro, Extro, Zentro

With her book “Intros and Extros”, Sylvia Löhken explores the question of how reserved and spirited people tick apart from all clichés, where their strengths and weaknesses lie in the business environment and how they can best be encouraged.

Most important finding: There is no such thing as good and bad. Both intros (“persistent”, “analytical”) and extros (“enthusiastic”, “fast”) are important for team building because they complement each other perfectly. If you let them.

Get out of the personality template

In her book, Loeken appealed primarily to managers in small and medium-sized enterprises not to squeeze their own people into uniform personality stencils but to work out the strengths.

For example, accept that introverted workers in Meetings withhold statements. They are better than classes when it comes to writing texts, summarizing results and formulating guidelines.

Bridge builders between the extremes

And then there are the “Zentros”. Löhken also devotes her attention to the “ambitious”, who are neglected in many psychological considerations, but can very well bridge the gap between “silent” and “steam chatter”.

If you want to know where you want to go and improve your learning and communication behavior, you will find a detailed test at the end of the book.

Instructions for use for the business

In the first part of the book, the author explains in detail light understand the different personality traits. The second part gets down to business: Here you will find out how you can score up and down as a manager, even if you are one of the quiet ones and your Executive the loud speech is preferred.

Löhken also explains how both extros (“flexible, rhetorically convincing”) and intros (“persistent, listens”) do a first-class job in the field when you let them do what they do best.

Barack Obama is also an intro

All power people are extroverts and their followers are the humble intros? Nonsense! Barack Obama is also an “intro” - including the full portion Charisma and authority that “extros” otherwise claim exclusively for themselves.

In her book, Sylvia Loeken cleans up with the stereotypes of seemingly competing temperaments. The author explains practically how the respective personality strengths in the company are brought to the best possible effect.

Finally playing the lead role

charisma and Personality are important. But can you learn them, can you work them out? You can, says author Eva B. Müller. Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King or John Lennon may have been born with it: an extraordinary, personal charisma. However, most people have to (and can) work hard at it.

Eve. B Müller helps with her clever book “Charisma – mit Strategy and personality to success” gladly. The author cracks the "charisma code" and explains five aspects that our public image systematically and sustained Improve: personality - dealing with people - charisma - credibility - unconventionality.

Emotional intelligence is trump

Müller does not provide an instant crash course for “image correction”, but a comfortably calm and well-founded one Coaching-Guide that first asks for self-reflection. According to Müller, charisma is nourished above all by emotion Intelligence.

The Background about one's own strengths and weaknesses is inextricably linked. "Things to Learn Get to know and control your emotional compass and learn to consciously control it at all times by finding and expanding your personal behavioral strategy.

Enjoy the performance in front of the audience

"Charisma - with strategy and personality to success" is a workbook, with a light hand and sympathisch written. You will learn about the most important prerequisites for charismatic action based on case studies and will be invited to practice your knowledge in practical exercises alone or in front of others Audience to practice and test.

Müller demands no less than that Courage, to shelve usual ways of acting and to appear “more self-confident” in the literal sense. She chooses the right one metaphor a theater stage.

There are performances every day – above all at work, but also at evenings spent with friends or at the Family. Your message: Leave the back rows of the public benches and dare to step into the limelight. Take on a leading role.

No charisma without provocation

Müller is at your side and takes over the part of the prompter if you suffer from presentation anxiety body language and want to hone facial expressions, or a sparkling one Idea is missing. "Her Presentation can be built according to several patterns. However, it should always contain one thing: a provocative thesis. Charisma cannot exist without provocation.”

"Charisma - with strategy and personality to success" is primarily aimed at Executives in companies that want to gain signaling power. All people who want to realign themselves in their social environment and whose curiosity is stronger than them benefit from the profitable advice Anxiety before changes.

Who adapts, comes on?

And another guide with a focus on personality development - and the unmistakable advice: stay true to yourself, don't bend overboard for your career, then you will be more successful. Even if the path looks more difficult at first.

For a long time, the career credo was that it was okay to bend a little for your career. And if you look at the many books on the subject of “Getting it right merchandise in interviews and / or applications ”, then one would think that the slime trail to success is far from having dried up.

But there is another way: "Personality continues" is the credo of the experienced career consultant and psychologist Christoph Burger. Because employees with their hands on the trouser seam and flexible backbone no longer make a prick.

Personality, but please do not be uncomfortable!

However, “personality” does not mean “crosshead”. What the boss says still counts today. But at least you can choose that. In "Career without a trail of slime" Christoph Burger outlines a promising egocentric path to the top.

In his book, Burger combines knowledge of “career mechanics” with good methods for personal development. He strikes a new note. He can also score with his experience as an outplacement consultant and consultant in transfer companies.

The law of success

Burger knows a lot of CVs, individual fates and success stories - and discovered in the course of time, that successes and failures also have certain, recurring regularities.

The most important thing is to take yourself seriously and importantly. And to explore. Burger offers some practical exercises and tests for this. For example the exerciseto imagine the 80th birthday with pinpoint accuracy.

Self-knowledge instead of an iron will

For example, in India or in the Black Forest, in a small house or in a villa, alone or in a large family circle? Whoever wants the latter, for example, must provide timely opportunities for future generations.

He also wants a difference to the often propagated Method to achieve success with an iron will and clear goals. That has none at all Sinn, says Burger, when goals and supposed will go past what makes a human being.

The goals are set in the second step

Conversely, but a shoe out of it. Anyone who knows his strengths, weaknesses and preferences (which presupposes the confrontation with himself) will also recognize opportunities and opportunities that arise time and again.

And will be able to see more and more clear goals. And that is the basis for not bending into the job, but finding the place where your own talents can also develop.

The boss is always right. But who is the boss?

But that does not override career mechanics. They are only interpreted differently. Example: “The boss is always right”. An indispensable rule. But also a rule that must not lead to bucking.

Burger advises either to develop insight into the situation in which the boss is also (also the one has a boss) - or to look for another job. And he also has the right methods at his disposal.

A career guide that focuses on the development or knowledge of your own personality. And then shows the methods that do not necessarily lead “upwards”, but to where you fit best.

How to make the breastfeeding of itself

Again and again there are books that amaze with their surprisingly new approach. This also includes Sylvia Löhken's book about the quiet in the country. And about their strengths. And about how you can use these strengths. There are enough role models. Barack Obama, for example. Or Angela Merkel.

They are often referred to as loners, difficult and not very communicative. It's about the introverts. And because that alone Term "introverted" equals a symptom of illness, the expert and author Sylvia Löhken prefers to speak of the "quiet".

This is not a minority. It is estimated that half of mankind has a tendency to introversion, the other to extroversion. It is, however, in the nature of the matter that the latter are more striking and seem to indicate the tone.

Tips for extroverts are threats to introverts

Her Bible is called "Never Eat Alone" (great tip for extroverts, ugly threat for introverts) and her favorite pastime is it Networking (“Am I a fisherman or what?” asks the introvert).

With her interesting book “Leise people – strong Effect” Sylvia Löhken is now making a breach for the quiet in the country. Shows how they use their own resources and strengths to make themselves heard.

Welcome to the club of Barack Obama, Albert Einstein, Angela Merkel and Günther Jauch

Sylvia Löhken shows right away that her introverts are not all in the dark room with her impressive celebrity gallery of introverts. Few would have suspected the American president in this squadron.

At the same time, it is the most beautiful example of how introverts can develop into enthusiastic speakers through practice and perseverance. And that's exactly what it is Objective the author. To show introverts that they shouldn't be blinded by the presence of sounds. Instead, they gain confidence in their strengths and abilities.

Basically different ways to recharge energy

According to Sylvia Löhken, the central difference between introverts and extroverts (which rarely occur in their pure form but tend to move on a continuum) is shown by “where do they come from Energy comes". According to this, extroverts draw energy from the exchange with others.

Introverts, on the other hand, withdraw to recharge their batteries. Löhken finds a beautiful image for this fundamental difference. Some are windmills, need energy from outside and have to supply it themselves SALE to be, to “turn”. The others, the quiet ones, on the other hand, quietly “recharge their batteries” by abstaining from all other activities.

Strengths, of which the sounds can only dream

"Quiet people - strong effect" gives introverts tips for all situations in life. How they assert themselves in teams, how they score as leaders and also how they create conflict-free partnerships. It's not all that difficult. Because the quiet ones have strengths that others can only dream of.

And they are persevering. One reason why so many introverts are to be found in upscale positions. Because perseverance is the one, essential prerequisite for success!

Hello, you are not alone in the world!

Introverts or "quietly" have been tortured with inappropriate demands since early childhood: "Play with the others", "Get more involved in school", "Go out with the others".

And that continues into adulthood. The fact that you simply ignore half of humanity with this advice is ignored. That's why it's good that Sylvia Löhken has now written a book with success and career strategies especially for the "quiet". May it help the “loud” to realize that they are not alone on the Welt are.
