Book Review: Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can’t Stop Talking

Book #14 of 52

Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can’t Stop Talking written by Susan Cain is a book that caught my eye in an airport book store.  I’m a certified Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) practitioner so I was immediately intrigued.

Cain is an introvert and writes this book from her own personal experience both in her career and also as a researcher (even going so far as to sign up for a Tony Robbins seminar).  She demonstrates that while introverts aren’t necessarily comfortable mixing it up in an extraverted world, they in fact have much to offer.

Who Should Read This Book

This book is great for any MBTI practitioners and for anyone who is introverted or is extroverted and shares a life with introverts.

My Final Thoughts

This is a great, powerful book.  After reading it, I realized that while I’m usually identified in my MBTI as an extravert, in fact, I’m an introvert that has been practicing the Free Trait Theory for the past 11 years.  It feels good to be in my own skin now!
