17: Expanding Your Introvert Power and Leadership, with Jennifer Kahnweiler

“It’s very important that we not try to continually adapt to extroverts. It is the time for introverts. Let me just say, each one of us has that within us, so it’s in all of our best interests to tap into some of those strengths.” - Jennifer Kahnweiler
