I've told this story before... seems to be very fitting to this post. I am an extrovert. I treat others with respect as to "who they are" and performance. If anyone is not doing their part introvert or extrovert a good manager needs to manage that....
I was severely depressed about 8 years ago. I was referred to a job... somehow I got the job... I have no idea how I got it...I worked hard and did a great job. Anyway, as I became more healthy more myself the guy that hired me started to be very annoyed with me..I showed emotions, perked up and gave ideas during meetings and so on...he let me go. He wanted someone with a different personality. It's OK...
I have also seen others hired that seemed to be golden to find out it was all bull.
I am an extrovert not full of bull. I respect all types of colleagues.. as long as that respect is mutual.
Sometimes managers hire the wrong personality for certain postions. Again, a good manager recognizes that he/she may be a great employee and move them to a better postion.
