"I have read numerous workplace guides for introverts, but Jill Chang's book is different. She makes success look easy because ease is the very thing she teaches. Through gentle and practical guidance, the reader learns how to remove the 'heavy armor' of extroversion expected by society and to be a 'comfortable introvert.' Chang, an executive whose territory now encompasses three countries, is living proof of that comfortable success. An invaluable resource."
-Laurie Helgoe, PhD, author of Introvert Power
