Wine&Learn - Quiet Leadership

Don't miss our Wine&Learn event where we have the honor to welcome Faris Khalifeh who will talk about Quiet Leadership.

• Do you feel like your temperament somehow hinders your career path or leadership effectiveness?
• Are you overlooked for leadership roles because of your quiet nature?
• Do you feel overshadowed by your gregarious colleagues?
• Do you feel pressured to go against your authentic self to get recognized?

The Event Concept
There will be two parts to this event. The first session will get you the chance to share with the other participants around your experience. Faris will be here to share you how to use quiet leadership. The second session will be around feedbacks and if you were able to use what you learned from the first session, and reflect with the speaker. Also, it will give you the opportunity to get more input and tips. All while tasting and learning about wines. Agenda is below.

More about Introvert and Leadership
About 50% of all leaders are introverts, yet our working environments favor the extrovert, the outspoken, bold and assertive. These traits have changed our definition of leadership and altered our assumptions about what good performance looks like. Also, while many studies have shown introvert people are natural born leaders, many business cultures often make it impossible to thrive. The speaker will illustrate how you don't have to be loud to be a great leader, and you can be impactful by being soft-spoken, quiet and gentle.

This talk is for extroverts as well, as they can gain valuable insight into the introvert's world, allowing them to understand and work more effectively with their introverted colleagues.

Key Takeaways:

✔ Understanding of Quiet Leadership

✔ Quiet leaders traits and strengths

✔ Expose introvert myths

✔ How to close the communication gap between introverts and extroverts
