For awhile now I've been reflecting on change and progress, the idea of leadership and how that translates to an introvert like myself. Until recently I thought leadership was innate, you either have it or you don't, pretty basic. I also assumed that leaders weren't introverted, and one precluded the other. I guess, as I look back on 2014, I will remember this year as one that demystified my stiff assumptions on character and personality.
