Why do we have to work on everything together? I feel so overwhelmed!
You are such a baby! Why can't you just help us out?
Please don't!!!
I'm going to speak with your parents because of your refusal to work with others.
I'm concerned about your daughter's lack of participation in teamwork
She is an introvert - she needs time alone to tap into her creative potential!
GREAT! More Teamwork!!
I have a project for you two!
Great, more teamwork!
Let's talk about your lack of enthusiasm for teamwork!
Constant teamwork is stressful for me. I need time to be alone and have creative thoughts
Oh my - I wasn't aware - I'm so glad you shared that with me! I will make sure you have that time!
YAY!!
I will make sure you have all the time you need on your own. When ready, you can be part of the team again!
I can concentrate again!
She is working hard on our project!
We'll see what happens!
Let's do this! I have so many ideas!
We are so happy you are here again! Let's talk about our project!
I'm so glad you reached out to me!
I have a great idea to share with you!
Thanks for joining us. I'll turn this meeting over to my colleague
Thank you - we are happy to present our findings to you all today!
Introverts aren't problems or oddballs. They just don't thrive in a groupthink situation. They need quiet and the means to be in touch with their own thoughts - that is when they are most creative!Work places and schools should rethink collaboration so we can be at our best!
Introverts need time in nature and to slow down and allow for our own revelations and ideas. When we have time for a "recharge," we can be a winning member of any team!
As a community, we need to recognize each other's value and to plan accordingly. Introverts may need time to open up, but, when they do, it is worth the wait!
When we don't have to hide our true nature, we can be a part of groups just as easily as extroverts.
