2. Some quiet time alone is good for you
In a meeting while everyone is busy talking, introverts are busy processing their thoughts. An introvert who sits back in a meeting, taking in the arguments, dreamily reflecting on the big picture, may be seen as not contributing.
That is, until he works out the solution that all the contributors missed

3. A little humility makes you a better leader
Humility. Servant leadership is characterized by a primary desire to be of service to others and to empower followers to grow.
Servant leaders believe their company goals are best achieved by developing the potential of their workers. They want to shine the light on others in the pursuit of a greater purpose: the success of their organizations, projects or ventures.

4. A calming demeanor is good for business
Staying stable and calm in all situationsIn noisy and chaotic organizations, which are often
cauldrons of emotion, an introvert’s presence is like a salve to the psyche.
This generates trust and helps us do business more effectively.

5. Gathering a fistful of business cards doesn’t create meaningful connections
Connect one-on-one and around an issue they find important.
So while an extrovert might attend an event and end up chatting with everyone, an introvert might attend an event and have a few one-on-one conversations
