Why Introverts Should Partner With Extroverts

Media_httpwwwinccomup_imxna

The essence of successful business development can be summarized in four steps:

Meet and connect with motivated business people - executives, entrepreneurs, investors, etc.

Understand their goals and objectives

Look for opportunities within your team or broader network to help them achieve their goals

Partner with them to create value

For our business, this approach is a team sport. As partners, we've always worked better by leveraging each other's distinctive strengths. As Bill mentioned in a recent column, he is an introvert and struggles with traditional, hand-shaking networking events. Karl, on the other hand, needs to be out meeting and talking to people, and sometimes gets bored with day-to-day tasks.
