Giving other opportunities for sharing ideas may be helpful eg emailing after meeting etc. https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029253764 2022-02-04 11:15:02 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029253764 An individual's (work/social) environment can affect an individual's level of introversion/extraversion, making it more or less flexible https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029254410 2022-02-04 11:15:33 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029254410 E & I https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029254743 Introverts may not have the opportunity to share their ideas in a meeting. It would be a good idea to have different avenues for all group members to reflect on what was discussed and to have alternative modes of expressing this, ie. follow-up in emails, chat-rooms.]]> 2022-02-04 11:15:49 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029254743 Extraverts might be perceived as more interested or more engaged, while introverts may come across as cold or disengaged. This might put Es in a more advantageous position in work/research environments. https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029255126 2022-02-04 11:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029255126 May not notice more introverted people on a team if they keep themselves to themselves and quietly get on with things. https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029255387 2022-02-04 11:16:19 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029255387 Experience can impact an individual's confidence, making them more likely to be extroverted in a given setting https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029255635 2022-02-04 11:16:32 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029255635 Cultural factors may affect how people are perceived (although may not actually be their preferred trait) eg in a collectivist culture people are usually in groups with people all the time, so may be presumed to be more extraverted when some individuals may actually be more introverted https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029257701 2022-02-04 11:18:17 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029257701 Innovation - offering a new perspective on something that's already out there. https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297254 2022-02-04 11:52:39 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297254 At the start of a research project often more big picture ideas valued. As research progresses something that works in practice receives more value. But depends on type/aim of research. https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297626 2022-02-04 11:53:00 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297626 We think that in research both of these aspects should be "rewarded" equally. https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297711 2022-02-04 11:53:04 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297711 In some cases, producing a lot of data. https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297802 2022-02-04 11:53:10 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297802 https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297872 I think it's a mixture. The big innovative ideas are then transposed into research questions and outcomes that need very practical work.]]> 2022-02-04 11:53:14 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029297872 Being systematic and objective, also innovation. https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029298520 2022-02-04 11:53:46 UTC https://padlet.com/katebuddevelopment/v067pxcqs7g3jdb0/wish/2029298520 Appearing as an 'expert' on a topic or field.
