In a world rampant with noise and frivolous connections, I take pride in my ability to slow down, listen well and form relationships that matter. However, when I first entered the workforce, I felt demoralised when I discovered it\u2019s a place that favours extroversion. That\u2019s not a bad thing, as extroverted colleagues bring the energy and excitement needed to get through the mundane work day. But ask any soft-spoken individual, and they can probably relay a time they felt overlooked for not being as loud and proud as their excitable counterparts. If you\u2019re wondering how to succeed at <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/stay-in\/work-money\/\">work<\/a>, here\u2019s some career advice from a fellow introvert to help you out.<\/p>\n<h2>Career advice for introverts on how to succeed at work<\/h2>\n<h3>1. Block out time to recharge<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_258954\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-258954\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-258954 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Juja-Han-via-Unsplash-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"career advice for introverts \" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Juja-Han-via-Unsplash-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Juja-Han-via-Unsplash-768x548.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Juja-Han-via-Unsplash.jpg 1144w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-258954\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Juja Han via Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Of course, there are many different degrees of introversion. Some individuals are quieter, some of us have no problem speaking out, and some are in between. But what do we have in common? Being in hectic environments or around people for prolonged periods of time can drain us out quickly. And if we\u2019re not careful, it can affect our performance at work.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re in the office, make it a point to set aside alone time for yourself. Especially after countless in-person meetings and discussions. At best, block out one or two hours on your daily calendar to finish work without distraction in a quiet area of the office. Or, if you\u2019re short on time, pop out for 10 to 15 minutes for a walk or a coffee break. It\u2019s a great way to recharge and get back to peak performance quickly.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Rehearse.

I know a fair few who can talk their heads off and charm a room if they need to. But we do prefer a heads up before being thrown into the spotlight at events, meetings or presentations. This is because we process information at a slightly slower speed, and prefer to mull things over thoughtfully \u2013 according to a study on motor behaviour back in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid being caught like a deer in headlights, it\u2019s always a good idea to prepare in advance. Read through the meeting agenda, add in any achievements or important points you want to highlight, and run through how you can convey them effectively. We don\u2019t like talking too much, but that\u2019s okay because it matters more how you say things than how much you say.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Learn the art of small talk<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_258956\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-258956\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-258956 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Nicole-Michalou-via-Pexels-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"career advice for introverts\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Nicole-Michalou-via-Pexels-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Nicole-Michalou-via-Pexels-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Nicole-Michalou-via-Pexels.jpg 1344w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-258956\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Nicole Michalou via Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you need to entertain guests, <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/launchpad-networking-singapore-entrepreneurs\/\">network<\/a> or mingle at events, the dreaded small talk is key to carving out good relationships. Plus, your bosses will have greater trust in you when they see you can handle important clients on your own.<\/p>\n<p>I was never great at keeping <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/conversation-starters-singapore\/\">conversations<\/a> flowing with strangers, but I found that having a fixed set of questions on hand always kept me prepared. Have a handy list in the notes section of your phone and read through them before a social event. Questions like \u201cHow did you spend your weekend?\u201d, \u201cWhat movies did you watch recently?\u201d or \u201cWhere are you travelling to next?\u201d will keep you and your guests occupied.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Be best buds with your manager<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_258957\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-258957\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-258957 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Jason-Goodman-via-Unsplash-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"career advice for introverts\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Jason-Goodman-via-Unsplash-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Jason-Goodman-via-Unsplash.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Jason-Goodman-via-Unsplash-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Jason-Goodman-via-Unsplash-1536x1097.jpg 1536w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-258957\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Jason Goodman via Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>No, I\u2019m not talking about sucking up to your manager (ew). As introverts, we value meaningful connections and we\u2019re good at building them. So use your strengths to your benefit and create a strong relationship with your manager \u2013 it\u2019s always good to have someone in the company who has your back.<\/p>\n<p>To start off, ask if you can lock in weekly or bi-weekly check-ins with them to talk about how you\u2019re faring at work. This can include chatting about your weekly achievements, tasks you might be struggling with, or stuff you want to work on. We\u2019re not as smooth at making sure our hard work is seen and acknowledged the way extroverts are. So, having this connection ensures your manager has consistent visibility of your efforts. It\u2019s also a great way to get some one-on-one mentorship in areas you feel you\u2019re lacking.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Don\u2019t sit on your achievements<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_258958\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-258958\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-258958 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Bruce-Mars-via-Unsplash-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"career advice for introverts\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Bruce-Mars-via-Unsplash-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Bruce-Mars-via-Unsplash-1400x1000.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Bruce-Mars-via-Unsplash-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Bruce-Mars-via-Unsplash-1536x1097.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/career-advice-for-introverts-Bruce-Mars-via-Unsplash.jpg 1652w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-258958\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Bruce Mars via Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I know first-hand how difficult it can be to talk about your achievements at work. It doesn\u2019t come naturally to most of us. But it\u2019s important not to undersell yourself \u2013 especially when you\u2019re putting in as much effort as everyone else. A trick I learnt? When it isn\u2019t easy to say something out loud, type it out in a text or email instead.<\/p>\n<p>Most organisations have a group chat for teammates to talk about anything from work to lunch arrangements to fun activities people enjoy. Utilise that channel to share your wins \u2013 whether that\u2019s handling a successful project or receiving great feedback from a client.<\/p>\n<p>If you end up sitting on your achievements, you may be in for a shock when your annual review rolls around and nobody in upper management knows what you\u2019ve done. It might feel scary, but go get that recognition you deserve.<\/p>\n<p>Stick to our career advice and we\u2019re confident you\u2019ll be a great asset in the workplace (whether you\u2019re an introvert or not)!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love my introverted nature.
