Introverts Vs. Extroverts: Successfulness

I. INTRODUCTION:
The area of introverts and extroverts has always intrigued me. Being an introvert myself I
have been told since the day I remember, you should be more outgoing, you should talk
more, or you should interact with others more often. This has been a burden of mine for a
large part of my life and now I want to learn in depth about introverts and extroverts. For my
topic I want to know who is destined to be more successful in our world and in which
professions or domains does each do better. We all have this stereotype that between the two
social groups, extroverts are more likely to be successful. Introverts are not as fortunate because
they dont communicate well and are not comfortable being in a social environment, which is
what employers dont want. But I believe introverts on average are more successful and better
leaders than extroverts. The questions that will help guide my paper will be: Are the social
groups born or made? What areas of the working business are each group prefered in? What are
the pros and cons for each social group in a leadership position? Which of the two classes get the
most jobs? Why? What countries prefer extroverts and which prefer introverts? Why?

II. LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

To define introverts and extroverts at a college level
To understand characteristics of introverts and extroverts
To understand professions that they are both prefered in
To work on my research and citation skills
To learn how to manage my time with this project and other classes
To produce a college level research paper
