Sana Shawkath Khan does not like talking about or making a big deal of her work or professional achievements. “By their nature, introverts tend to get passionate about one, two or three things in their life,” says Susan Cain, author of Quiet: The Power Of Introverts In A World That Can’t Stop Talking, in a 2015 article in The Wall Street Journal. “Eventually, I struck a balance.” Like Miranda, many quiet workers find the noise and pressure of being on social media tiring. “Organisations must create an inclusive environment that values different work styles and their unique strengths.” Putting pressure on quiet workers into continual extroversion is unhelpful, for there are many merits to quiet achievement. Initially there are some giggles, but soon people understand its value.” Amika Kler, an HR consultant in Goa, says quiet workers’ deep thinking and listening skills help them make strong leaders.
