Personality Trait – Introversion
These people do not have a strong need for social relations with others.
Social Media Implications for Introversion
- Preferring black & white data, facts and logic these people will typically thrive in social media.
- Text-driven interactions allow thought before any response, ideal for introverts.
- Social media allows for great control over interactions, providing more structure than face-to-face gatherings.
- Fast-moving digital interactions might overwhelm introverts, however, and they may not share in the “fun” of videos or other highly social activities.
Leadership Strategies for Introverted People with Social Media
- These “heads down” workers who prefer written communication can grind out impressive amounts of high-quality material.
- Their penchant for thoughtful response can provide consistency in maintaining a well-defined social media “personality” for an organization.
