When you think about working day in and day out in the social landscape, it seems like a no-man’s land for anyone who is shy and reserved. At first glance, social media can easily seem like a place where the bold and loud thrive in massive following numbers and less likely to reap the same success for anyone who is even slightly hesitant to send a tweet.
I am a social media manager who has, according to my Myers-Briggs personality test, been classified as an introvert. But can a social media manager afford to be an introvert? Does it ultimately cost them their job title to be more quiet than boisterous, or worse, make the employer question why they should even work in this field if they’re not actively on at all times? The answer here is yes, you can take charge in a social role and still be an introvert – and it may be much better for you than being an extrovert too.
