Better Together

FDR and Eleanor. Mick and Keith. Careers and Woz. You will find countless examples of introvert-extrovert partnerships who make brilliant products, create great works of art, and even change history jointly. But these partnerships don’t simply happen. They demand sensible nurturing.

The key, says bestselling author Jennifer Kahnweiler, is for opposites to stop emphasizing their differences and use approaches that focus them both on moving toward results. Kahnweiler’s first-of-its-kind useful five-step process helps introverts and extroverts understand and appreciate each other’s wiring, make use of conflicts to spur creativity, enrich their own skills by learning from the other, and find out and take action on stuff neither could have separately. Kahnweiler shows how to perform the sensitive balancing act necessary to create a complete that is exponentially higher than the amount of its parts.
