The pressure to be a 'good communicator' always feels like it's about being extroverted and chatty. But this article gets at something deeper - you talk about connecting better. I actually think introverts have an advantage here because we're already listening more than talking. The problem is when people mistake our quietness for not understanding or not caring. Sometimes the person saying the least is understanding the most.

Happy Thursday, Michael.
"The problem is when people mistake our quietness for not understanding or not caring."
Yes, on that, as I've experienced it too.
Happy Friday to Neela.
