Ambivert

What is Ambivert ?

An ambivert is an individual displaying the traits of both introverts and extroverts. They fall in the middle of the personality spectrum, making them highly flexible in social settings. These individuals can easily adapt to match the demands of any specific situation, while also being capable of having higher empathy, as they understand both perspectives of human nature.

 

Multiple studies suggest that ambiverts outperform extroverts in jobs that were aimed at extroverts like sales, acting, etc. Similarly, ambiverts would be better at doing traditional introvert jobs too as they have the added advantage of easily interacting with others.

 

Famous author, Dan Pink, familiarized the world with the idea of ambivert individuals in his book ‘To Sell is Human’.
