The Influence of Introverted Minds

Nikola Tesla

As I conclude my research for now, I feel that I have definitely gained some new insight on the subject and have change some of my original opinions. I found that using social media to communicate has helped introverts be more outspoken and expressive. I've also learned that introverted leaders can be just as effective as extroverted leaders given the appropriate crews. That is something that I had never really given much thought to before. In fact, I found many things that I had never linked to introversion before, but once I read a few articles and research findings it seemed to make sense.

When I first started to research introverts and extroverts, I had assumptions that introverts just intentionally avoid certain lines of work and steer themselves to jobs that fit them better. I'm sure this is true in some cases, but I've discovered that it is also true that some introverts have the same desires and goals as some extroverts. Reaching those goals is just more difficult for introverts because of the steps involved with getting there.

I am not exactly sure which area I plan on using as the main thesis for my final project. I still want to do more research on the use of social media and internet communication in regards to different personality types. I also did not find the kinds of statical information I was looking for. I plan to do more research in these areas for my final project.

I think my question was answered about society being geared towards extroverts. I found the explanations given about the education styles having an impact on introverts to be very compelling.
In addition, it is easy to see outspoken behavior being rewarded in society everyday.

I am still wondering how society could do more to accommodate introverts, or if it should make accommodations? My personal belief is yes, of course it should accommodate. As an introvert you just learn your limits and live within them, but if you want to exceed the bounds of those limits it can be a brutal process. I'm sure that this is somewhat true with all personality types, but I feel that introverts are naturally dealt an inferior hand.

Introverted minds have been influencing society since the beginning of time, and sadly, a persons true genius is sometimes not fully recognized until that person has passed away. Often times they spend much of their lives being ridiculed and viewed as outcasts.

Are there things that can be changed in society to make it more accepting and accommodating? Can society become more appreciative and respectful of introverted behavior? These questions still linger in my head.
