MLK

Happy Martin Luther King day everyone. If you ever wonder whether your introversion will preclude you from an activist lifestyle, or if you ever think it is impossible for an introvert to be a powerful orator, or if you consider that your introversion hinders you from effective leadership, just remember that Martin Luther King Jr. was an introvert.

  1. Thanks Adam for the info about MLK Jr, I didn't realize that he was an introvert, but he was certainly a strong leader. Good leaders find their strength from within and I guess he did.

    I have a post too about MLJ Jr on my blog as well
