+
+## Abstract
+
+Business requires people working together, and that often brings people of
+different personality types and temperaments together in the hope that
+something worthwhile will come of the interactions that will take place.
+Challenges can arise when *any* two people try to communicate, but it can be
+especially tricky when at least one of those is an introvert.
+
+This talk will provide insights into how to deal with introverts, whether they
+be your peers, the people you manage, or your boss. You may also learn how to
+deal with yourself if you are an introvert.
+
+## Notes
+
+Communication is hard (at best) when you don't take your receiver into
+account. Example: Picard tries to communicate with the "darmok" alien. Even
+though the universal translator was making it so that all the words were
+individually understood, communication still wasn't happening. There is more
+to language than mere words. Likewise, there is much more to effective
+communication than language. A mutual understanding at some level is necessary
+to make communication work, and better understanding is required for better
+communication. Consider how network protocols are used to specify exactly how
+two machines or programs can communicate.
+
+Speaking of Picard, what a great example of an effective introvert. See clip
+of Picard trying to relax on shore leave but women are talking with him
+because Riker gave him a trinket that is culturally significant.
+
+Separate the condition with the apparent or supposed results.
+- It's not aspergers or autism.
+- Rage quitting and abusive nerds online.
+- Social awkwardness.
+- Depression, [social] anxiety, stress, shyness, energy level, self esteem.
+- Aloofness, selfishness, stuck up, self-absorbed.
+
+Stress is caused by inconsistency between a person's belief and their actions.
+It is also the gap between what a person wants to do or feels like he or she
+needs to do and what that person is actually doing or able to do.
+
+Human personality spans many spectrums. It isn't black and white. You're not
+either an introvert or an extrovert; you exist somewhere in between.
+
+It's good to try to be more well-rounded. Try to put yourself out there, but
+understand your effective limitations. Building meaningful relationships is
+cool.
+
+Introverts don't need to be coddled. Certain individuals (introvert or
+extrovert) may feel they need that, but introverts don't inherently need that.
+In fact that may be very anti-productive. Because of the energy requirements
+of introverts, they do need special consideration, that's true. But not
+coddling.
+
+One of the most cringeworthy concepts for an introvert is breaking out of
+one's "comfort zone." This phrase is bandied out constantly, but little time
+is spent considering whether or not doing so has real benefits that the person
+should care about. It may be beneficial, but we all seem to have this
+assumption that we all should be breaking out of our comfort zones, but should
+we really all be striving to do that? Yes and no.
+
+Try not to put introverts "on the spot". You'll likely get a blank expression
+in return. Seed the discussion beforehand. Send out a list or summary of
+things to think about before a planned meeting and make sure they know what
+will be expected of them.
+
+Don't rush introverts. When you ask them a question that they don't
+immediately know the answer to, you may get a blank expression that may make
+you think that there is no thinking going on there, but they are thinking.
+Just be a little patient and you'll get a response eventually. If you're an
+introvert put on the spot, try to make some sort of indication that you are
+thinking and will respond. "Give me a second to think about that..."
+
+Introverts are very capable of leadership and making decisions, but some will
+find it more difficult to commit to a decision in cases where facts are not
+available. They are data driven (is this true?) that may have more to do with
+right brain lift brain differences. Introverts can be very creative. Although
+an introvert may effectively fill my roll, some things may simply be done
+better by an extrovert.
+
+In a meeting or other social setting, it's not unlikely to find the introverts
+there may seem to not be participating. What may be happening is that they may
+be having deeper thoughts than the extroverts. This does take time, though, so
+they're probably lagging behind in the conversation, and by the time they have
+something really interesting to say, they may find the conversation topic has
+moved on, so they may not ever share their thought. Encourage people like that
+to perhaps take notes and then to submit additional ideas via email or
+something after the meeting.
+
+Introverts don't like to interrupt people, and sometimes extroverts engaging
+with each other fail to leave gaps in the conversation in which introverts
+feel like they can interject. Again, not all introverts have this issue, and
+some that do have it have trained themselves to interact more like extroverts
+in social settings.
+
+Introverts don't feel the need to say something unless it's important AND
+isn't already being said, so if extroverts happen to be covering all the
+important points in the conversation well enough, introverts may be content to
+sit back and let the extrovert say everything. While some introverts may even
+be fine with extroverts getting all the credit, you should be aware that many
+those ideas may have come from the introvert.
+
+Some introverts may be prone to not remembering "trivial" details... such as
+people's names. If you struggle with this, work on it. Sometimes you see
+somebody but you just don't care enough to actually see them. Start to care.
+
+Introverts need extroverts and visa versa. We compliment each other. A world
+without extroverts would be quite dull.
+
+Most of what I know about how to deal with introverts I learned from how my
+boss and coworkers deal with me.
+
+## About Me
+
+I am not in HR. I'm actually a software developer, but I learned of and then
+became interested in understanding introversion when I was at a point in my
+life where I was trying to understand myself. When I was growing up, I was
+often frustrated that I wasn't more like my extrovert peers. I enjoyed and had
+fun with my friends -- fortunately my friends enjoyed many introverted
+activities -- but I noticed that I had many personality traits that were
+considered undesirable at the time. Unfortunately, I often made the mistake of
+caring what my peers thought of me, and that had some effect on my self
+esteem. Actually, I made the far-more foolish mistake of believing in and
+caring what I *thought* my peers thought of me.
+
+My experience made me uncomfortable being me, which is awful because I wasn't
+about to be anyone else. After I realized how silly I was being by putting so
+much weight behind what others may have thought about me, my discomfort left
+and I was able to be happy again. I think this experience, to varying degrees,
+is shared by many people of a variety of personality types, but (introvert
+suicide rates). If you can relate to the experience I shared and are still
+clinging to the false idea that your value should be so closely tied to what
+others think of you (or what you imagine others think about you), please let
+go of that notion! This is the most important thing you could take away from
+this presentation.
