The Quiet Revolution: Mastering Your Inner Power

0:01 Hello, and thank you for tuning in to A Sharp Outlook on K4HD Radio and Talk4TV. I am Angela Sharp, your host. Our armchair discussions with industry experts will give you the steps, tools, and information to be successful in business and to prepare you to be your best self. Hello, and thank you for joining us here at A Sharp Outlook. to have another thought-provoking conversation about just things that we experience on a daily basis. We're talking today about the quiet revolution, mastering your inner power. In a culture that rewards the loudest voices in the room, how can we leverage the quiet ones? So this episode, we're going to sit down and talk about how to be able to include those that they call introverts and talk about how they're often misunderstood and they really do have a quiet power.

1:14 We're going to dive into the science of introversion, the art of mindful leadership, and how to assert your presence without shouting. Whether you're an introvert looking to own your space or or a leader wanted to tap into the potential of your quietest team members, this episode will redefine what it means to be influential. We as a society often confuse loud with leadership and quiet with weakness. We really need to get a better understanding with that because that's not the truth. Why is it that our society is so biased towards the loud, obnoxious, rude, mean, and heartless?

2:05 Where did this misconception start? We're going to get some answers today. And I want to talk about this, what we call quiet power. How do we define quiet power? Well, there are many people, and I have worked for a long period of time, that are in the room, that are very intelligent, have good solutions, have great ideas. But because the other team members seem to be so loud or are louder than those particular people, they're always the ones that get all the attention. They're always the ones that get called to do the extra work. They're always the ones that are picked. Why is that? Does being loud make you smarter? Does being loud make you have better solutions? Does being loud make you anything other than just loud? And I'm not saying that you cannot stand by your opinion with confidence, but it doesn't have to be screaming. It doesn't need to be loud, certainly not obnoxious and rude. So what is it about our society that we are so hyped up and aggressive and loud that those that are more quiet but have just expert opinions and ideas and solutions and abilities are kept out

3:36 of the conversation? And we really need to look at that, especially we that are in leadership. We need to ask questions of those that aren't making as much noise because sometimes the ones that are so loud are probably the ones that have less confidence than the ones that are quiet. Sometimes the ones that are quiet are quiet because they know what they're talking about. They don't need to send off fireworks and balloons to get attention. They just come up with the results and give the right answers so that companies are able to proceed and be successful in the directions that they're going. But when we have become so accustomed to all of the noise and the chaotic voices, and that's what your expectations are of your team, Well, there are some that are just not going to be a part of that, and you're missing out on great information and solutions that would really advance your organization. Imagine in the boardroom, you have a few team members in there doing a presentation to the board, and you have the quiet ones who, you know, pause and wait until they're actually addressed. And then you have the ones that interrupt the conversations and make sure that they're heard. I

5:10 think maybe some of that is how our leadership is prepping our ones that are in that boardroom. We're telling them how to present their information. And then there's also this, like I said, we've gotten so used to the noise. And believe me, you can't turn on the television. You can't even watch a commercial without some type of loudness, rudeness, you know, obnoxious behavior, noise, some things inappropriate. And is this what we're becoming in society that it's just a bunch of noise and Instead of actual solutions. It's just a bunch of noise. Instead of actual conversation. It's just a bunch of noise. Instead of having. An actual team.

6:04 That is being led. Where all participants are considered. A part of the program. The project. The idea. The creation. Because a lot of times. Especially. I had a show recently. Back last year, about this time, we were talking about those that are neurodivergent and being able to set up atmospheres where they're able to come into the workplace to work, maybe cutting out some of the noise, maybe softening some of the light and, you know, the things that kind of cause them to feel uncomfortable because they're I'm here to tell you some of them are the smartest, especially those in the tech world, especially those that are programming, especially those that understand science. They are brilliant. Their ideas are brilliant. Their brains just work differently, but they are smart.

7:07 They have great ideas. They are ones that you would want to actually hear from. But because we have some misconceptions as to what their capabilities are, what they can do, what they can contribute. I'm here to tell you, you're missing out on some excellent talent. And maybe you might want to change the organization slightly. so that you bring them in, give them a great working environment, and you make it possible for them to show just how brilliant they are and give you the kind of answers that make your organization just shine, shine brighter than the competition because you've got the brightest ideas, you've got the best team, and you're hearing from the right people. But, you know, we have to decide whether or not we as leaders, we prefer to process, you know, I know those that are more quiet. They prefer to process internally and compete with someone who thinks out loud in real time. It's difficult for them to be able to do that. it's difficult because they are quiet because they do internalize their thinking, but when they actually, uh, communicate their solutions, they are superb.

8:41 But when they are being put in a situation where they're having to compete for attention, they're having to compete, compete to be heard. And you have others that are so loud that, um, you're not even going to be able to be heard, then it creates an environment where this is not a competitive environment where everyone is given a chance to be heard. This is an environment where if these people get shouted down, they don't get considered at all. And this is where we really have some problems in our organizations when these kinds of behaviors are happening.

9:22 And believe me, I know that these kinds of behaviors are happening in corporate environments. And maybe things would be a lot better and we wouldn't be looking for so many robots if we started actually listening to the human intelligence that's sitting right in front of you. Introversion isn't just a personality type. It's an energy management strategy. And this is what I want to say to all of you that you say that you're introverts. You're not loud. You're more quiet with your information. your skills, your knowledge, your solutions. What I'm saying to you is let's change the idea. You're not an introvert. You're just someone that manages your strategies internally. And you want to share it.

10:20 And I call it, and so does a guest, Veronica O'Donnell. She says, quiet power is for those who actually are introverts. You have a quiet power, and it is unbelievable. And it brings so much opportunity to others that are there that maybe aren't as noisy anymore. I want to encourage you not to hold this in, not to hide, not to be afraid, not to be ashamed. You are intelligent.

11:01 You are smart. You actually have a way of thinking and getting solutions, but you just don't need to go and, like I said, send off fireworks to get attention. You just sit there until someone notices that you're there. And I'm saying leaders, leaders. Let them have an opportunity to speak because they do have great solutions. The extroverts, they generally aren't listening. And so they just begin speaking. They just begin talking. Sometimes it's not even on the topic. They're just talking. And that behavior, it kind of intimidates those that are more quiet and And we need to find a situation where you can better invite that quiet power into your ideas, into your projects, into the things that you're trying to achieve and goals, and have a collaborative environment without putting people on the spot. I know when I first started working years ago, and I was working in... accounting and finance and during that time you know computers and technology and software and all of that stuff was starting to become very prevalent and so you had to learn about it and and if you didn't

12:34 know when you were in college initially they weren't really offering the classes initially because it had not become a thing and so you were learning on the job and so A lot of people were very quiet. They didn't tell anyone that they understood. They didn't tell anyone that they could do the work. And so they weren't included in the teams that were doing a lot of the programming. They got left out. And I watched them. I saw that. And it broke them. It really did. I watched it, and it was so uncomfortable. I, myself... I might have been a little quiet, but I always stood up for myself.

13:19 So I guess maybe I could have been considered one of the loud ones. I was going to make sure that I was heard, even though they didn't want to call on me. I always just made sure. I was like, oh, well, you know, everyone else had an opportunity to talk, but no one asked my opinion. Well, I have an opinion, so I'm going to express it right now while I have the floor. And then I would tell them what my thoughts were. And it's like, oh, wow, we never thought about it that way. Yeah. So now what are we going to do? Let's put this together and let's make things happen. And let's collaborate all of the ideas and let's go forward. So I understand how you can kind of be left out just because. But you still have that quiet power. and use it for an opportunity to be able to persuade those that are there. You know, silence is often seen as awkward. How do you turn silence into a tool for persuasion or negotiation? When that moment of silence starts in a conversation, when you're working on something that is going to be complex, or doesn't have to be so complex, but you're working with a team of people, Being able to voice your opinion and share your ideas, it is important. Because, like I said,

14:51 just because you're loud doesn't necessarily mean that your solutions are the best. And right now in a society where people just run over others, It's going to be difficult, but I think, like I said, we need to start being more attentive to how our meetings are being conducted. We need to become more attentive as to everybody that's in the team is being addressed and given an opportunity to speak, whether they shout it out first or they're the last person to talk. They still have ideas, and I believe they need that opportunity to do that. And I know many of you have experienced this very thing that I'm talking about. So I want to ask, how do we advocate for ourselves in asking for promotions, pitching ideas, or standing our ground without feeling like we have to adopt a persona that's not our own? Those that are introverts, they are being forced to come outside of their personality and become someone that they're not. Just to have an opportunity to be heard. Just to have an opportunity to be considered in the team that's working together. We should not have working environments where it's so competitive. And I don't like the idea of you being competing with one another at work. You're a team. How are you competing

16:22 against one another? If I'm in finance and you're over in sales or you're over in distribution or you're over in retail... how am I competing? We have different ideas because we're in different areas of the organization and we have different processes that we, you know, carry out and all of them are collaborated together so that they actually meet the goal because the processes are all now complete because everyone participated. But then when you try not to listen to someone because they're more quiet, you've missed a major step, a major process, a major, um, Arrangement that's going on and that's part of your processes that need to be complete so that everything flows the way it should flow. But how do we get us to change the environment so that we're not forcing people to be someone that they're not? Because they won't be successful at it.

17:22 And then you'll be saying, hmm, I don't know about this person. Well, you're forcing them to be someone that they're not just so you will listen. We need to understand that we have quiet people and we have loud people. And the quiet people you wish would get corrected and stop being quiet. No, I don't think that's the idea. I don't think that's the thought. I don't think that is what is supposed to happen. I don't think that they need to change their personality of who they are or the way they communicate or the way they speak. I think the environment needs to change so that everyone, everyone's personality, whatever it is, they are considered part of the team and they get the same level of of respect and they are listened to just as much and as well as all the others who have been taking on this persona of being aggressive and pushing their way through the organization. I'm not sure when we all started behaving this way. I guess maybe some of the television programs we've been watching has influenced us to be mean girls, bad girls, you know, all these different things that we see visually. Now we want to become those. That's entertainment.

18:56 And then there's the real world. And that's what we're wanting to make sure we understand. You know, If I was wanting to give some advice to someone who's feeling that they're being talked over, I would still say, remain your authentic self. Be yourself. of who you are and try to be someone else just so that you can be heard or so that you can appear to be someone that can be promoted or just to make people like you or whatever it is. You're going to end up internally inside yourself. You're not going to be feeling good about yourself. You're not going to be feeling that you are who you are. You're going to feel like you've betrayed and you've got the imposter syndrome. You're trying to pretend you're someone that you're not. You need to be you. And this is who you are. And that doesn't change your abilities. It doesn't change your intelligence. It doesn't change how much you know and all the wonderful things you're able to create. Don't let the loudness force you to be someone else because you're going to be unhappy with that. Use that, as I said before, as

20:28 your quiet power and you just bring your presentation when people are quiet enough to hear what you have to say. And if you do that often enough, they're going to know who you are. They're going to understand that's who you are. And they're going to give you the space that you need because they love your solutions. They love your ideas. They love what you have to offer to the organization. So you definitely want to just be you and not change. Instead, we spend a lot of time teaching introverts how to survive in a loud world instead of doing, as I said before, changing the work environment to accommodate for those that are quiet also. It's not a difficult change in the organization. It's called respect. And if you have an environment where everyone is respected, everyone is a part of the team, everyone is encouraged to bring ideas, then you won't have this competition about the loud one trying to shut down those that are more quiet.

21:55 But that is an organizational problem. It is not the problem of the introverts. It is not the problem of the neurodivergence. The problem is the work environment, which is, hello, leaders. That is your responsibility to change the working environment so that all people are considered and a part of the team and everyone's voice is included and considered in the decision making. That is a leadership issue. That is not the problem of the individuals in your organization. If you're a CEO of a company, what structural changes would you make to ensure the most thoughtful ideas rise to the top rather than just the loudest ones? I'm asking you that question, you leaders that are out there. What are you going to change in your organization to make sure that everyone is heard? You're the CEO. You're the CFO.

23:08 You're the director. You're the VP. You're the leader. What are you going to do to make sure that every voice is heard? What changes are you going to make to make sure others are not left out just because they're not yelling and screaming their ideas? And in fact, I probably, well, I know I will. You don't have to scream your ideas. You don't have to shout over other people. In fact, it would even be nicer if you would encourage the more quiet ones to speak up.

23:52 Give them the space. Say, hey, we haven't heard from Linda. Hey, we haven't heard from Charles over there. We want to hear your ideas. We want to make sure everybody's included. I've been in organizations and I've seen that happen and I've seen how well they operate because everybody is included in the conversation. Everyone feels that they are equally valued in the organization. That's very important. When you're in a meeting and someone asks a question that requires deep thought, how do you think about how much time they're taking and giving you an answer? Because sometimes like the quick answer, it's an answer, but is it the solution you were looking for? So it's not about being quick. Because quick doesn't mean right. In fact, let's talk about quick. We went out there and started turning things all over to AI so that we could get information quickly and found out it doesn't work out that well. Because if your processes are not in order and you don't have these

25:23 things already working efficiently, The only thing you're getting are bad results faster. You're not getting good results. This is what happens when we don't understand what's going on in our organizations. The one thing I would like to say if there's an introvert and you're in a meeting and someone asks a question that requires deep thought, How do you buy yourself time to think without feeling pressure to give a fast answer? First off, you should never feel pressured to give a fast answer. You should be pressured to give a right answer. And that takes time because there's a lot of analytics that in answering a solution.

26:22 And sometimes if you don't have that immediate knowledge, you have to say, I'm not sure at this time, but I need to check out a few things and validate my ideas and then bring you back the solution that you're looking for. I don't want you to feel pressured that you have to give a quick answer just because there's loud people in the room. and then you give an answer that's incomplete or it's wrong. Buy yourself some time so that you can be able to present them with the answer that gives them the solutions they're looking for, not answering because you feel pressured to say something. Never be pressured, never feel pressured to just talk and start rattling off anything without First, analyzing it, verifying it, and then bringing an answer. Don't allow anyone to pressure you to be put in that spot. It's a trap. Don't do it. Don't feel that pressure. There's a huge difference between being introverted and being socially anxious. And I think these days, Because of a lot of the social media,

27:53 because of a lot of the chaos and all of the anger and the rage and just the loudness everywhere, you're feeling like you're feeling anxiety that I've got to do the same thing. I'm here to say in organizations that are really moving forward and wanting to achieve their goals, meet their promises to their stockholders, meet their profit goals, meet all of their expenses, meet their growth plans, they're not looking for loud. They're looking for thoughtful. They're not looking for all of the chaos and noise. They really truly are looking for solutions. When you say solutions, Solutions gives you the whole path and pattern as to what is going on, and these are the expected results, and these are the things that will go wrong if you have not done this, this, this, this, and this. It shows the pros and cons. It has a lot of information in it. That's not a quick answer just because you're loud. You can't even give an answer like that because you're just shouting and being loud. And don't feel,

29:28 and I know a lot of the people that are just making all that noise, they're feeling the social, they have that social anxiety because they're worried. are looking at the influencers and I don't want to say anything about influencers because I've got grandchildren that are in that realm. But I'm saying that there's a way to influence people and it's not necessarily just making a lot of noise. And what it's doing, those that don't feel comfortable being chaotic and loud and they are more introverts, they're hiding their quiet power behind a wall of fear. And they're simply choosing to be selective with their energy. And I don't blame you. Be selective with your energy. Don't get caught up in the noise. Don't get caught up in the hype. Don't get caught up in the chaos because that's a competitive area, first off, that's not you. And you don't need to become them to be heard. You be you. Quiet power is actually a choice. It's not a deficiency. It's a choice. Choose to have your quiet power.

30:57 You will find that you will climb higher. So much faster because those that are in leadership, they are recognizing that you are very attentive to what you're doing, that you are waiting to find the right solutions instead of just answering to say, I know something that may not be complete. Let your quiet power speak for you. It's your choice. It's not a deficiency. And it is powerful because everyone's now waiting for you to bring your answer.

31:43 And when it comes in and it's brilliant, it's something that was worth waiting for. And you're going to see the appreciation when you do that. Be an authentic instead of performance noise. Be yourself. Right now, everybody's performing. I know that's what the influencers do. Every day they are in a performance. A performance so they can get more clicks. A performance so they can get more views. A performance so that they can make that product be sold more often.

32:31 There's a lot of performance noise out there, but it does not necessarily mean there's knowledge behind it. It does not mean that there are real solutions behind it. take it for what it is it is a performance they go and practice day and night to come back to create some chaotic noise that's going to draw attention, that's going to get it shared all over social media because it is sometimes chaotic, sometimes loud, sometimes rude, sometimes obnoxious, a lot of times misinformation. It's performance. Performance noise is not what you need in your working environment. What you need is knowledge, understanding, capability, and performance. But not performance noise.

33:37 Performance in the task of their jobs with excellence. Many people conflate being quiet with as being shy or anxious. And they're two very different things. There is a massive difference between being introverted and being socially obnoxious. And it's easy to identify that you, and you're not hiding, it's just your quiet power, you're not hiding But I want you to understand it is your choice to have that power and to release it when it is necessary, when it is needed, and release it when it's going to actually have a value return on your presentation. Don't hide your quiet power. Behind a veil of fear. Don't let the others intimidate you. There's always going to be noise.

34:51 Just go outside. Just turn on the television. It's just always some noise. Something that just is not even acceptable behavior. But people are gravitating to it. Select when to use your energy. Don't be intimidated. Select when you want to use your energy. It's your power. Use it. And when you use it, it's going to bring you more success than anyone making a lot of noise. As I mentioned before, it's a choice. It's not a deficiency. And often people with quiet power struggle with the performative nature of social media or networking. I would say, don't try to compete with it. You don't need to try to compete. Do you.

35:52 Be you. Whatever you do, stay authentic. That's when you are the most successful, is when you are your authentic self and you're not pretending. You go there trying to pretend that you're just as loud and obnoxious as the others. You're going to wear yourself out because you're going to know, you know within yourself that's not you. And wearing a mask that's not you is going to cause you internal anxiety. And you're going to physically and emotionally become ill because you yourself is not present. You've got this image that you're trying to put on so you can be like everybody else. What's so wonderful about quiet power? It's unique.

36:42 Everybody doesn't have it. You don't have to make a lot of noise and shout and be obnoxious and be mean and over talk everybody in the room to be heard. Just sit there with a smile on your face and let them know I'm here. And they eventually will turn and say, well, we haven't heard from you. What do you have? And that's when you get to dazzle them with all the thoughts and All the ideas, all the resolutions that you have and have had, they just forgot to ask earlier. In an era of personal branding, where everyone feels they need to be an influencer, how can a naturally quiet person build a reputation? And visibility without feeling like they are selling their soul or putting on a costume. Authentic authority or performative noise. I'm saying keep your authentic authority. You don't have to do that. You don't have to be an influencer. Just be a person with knowledge. You will automatically influence others. And those that are making the noise are going to have to turn

38:12 on your brand just to find out what's going on in reality. Because they know they're performing. They know that their information is not accurate. That's not even their top priority. Their priority is to get attention. So don't try to compete with that. Don't try to compete with that at all. Just show your power, show your brilliance. When they see that quietly just come out of you, they're going to know you are the one that they need to turn to for solutions at all times. Now, I'm not saying if you're an entrepreneur or and you're an introvert, and you're trying to get attention, there's a lot of AI visuals and everything else that you can get and have that screen shooting off fireworks, making all kinds of noise, getting the attention of people, and then you come in with your authority and your brilliance and dazzle them with your knowledge. Let me tell you, that is worth far more than a million influencers. Because people are looking for solutions and real truth that's going to make a difference in their life. And as I said, if you're an entrepreneur, you have a restaurant or you have a business that

39:43 you have or whatever, and you're wanting to get attention, yes, you can have your branding. Go ahead and have your branding. Make sure that branding is going to bring the right audience that you were trying to reach. And in fact, in a few weeks, I'm going to have a guest on that's going to be talking about branding and how to handle branding. your branding and getting that attention. But you don't have to sell your soul to be able to make your business effective. If I was thinking about training someone or working with someone, I would tell them, because a lot of people say, oh, what you need to do is just fake it till you make it. Don't.

40:35 Don't use that. That's not a good solution because you lose yourself. You lose yourself in the performance. You lose yourself in the act. And you don't have truth coming out. And it should not be something that you want to do. It's not something that is going to make things or get the Lao ones to give you space. And a lot of them are loud because if anything, they have less confidence than you do. They're loud because they're trying to get their point in because they haven't done the work.

41:21 They're loud because it's a distraction. So they make up things to say, they You know make noise they do a whole lot of physical, you know You're looking at them. Their arms are flying and different things like that and they're they're Like I said, they're loud. They're aggressive But they don't have the solutions because it doesn't require all of that They're scared That's why they're loud They're scared They're scared that you're going to find out that they don't know. So it's okay to have that quiet power.

42:05 And when your turn comes, then you speak your brilliance. You speak your knowledge. Don't try to be them. Don't try to fake it till you make it. Don't do any of that stuff. We need to look at using the quiet power. and not being intimidated. And if you're not an influencer where you're getting paid by the clicks, then you should not be concerned about how they are doing their job. That's not what you are. That's not what you do. You're a think tank. Do your thinking and bring those answers. That's what is expected. That's what you want to be doing. Don't be something that you're not.

42:58 You will really be unhappy about it. It's just so much that people impose on others. And like I said, the social media is there and we have performances all day, every day. It's gotten to the point where even commercials are starting to act like performers are And influencers, yeah, they're trying to sell their brand. But like I said, some of the they've gotten to the point where you don't even know what they're selling because it just got noise on on the commercials. They got noise. You don't even know what the branding is. We used to be a little there was a little song. You knew what it was. You know, you knew what coffee it was when you saw the one little drop that dropped in the cup. You knew the brands because of how they built up, how good the product was, how they built it up by providing a product that was tasty or usable or whatever it was. They used to have a brand because they had something to sell. Now we're selling noise.

44:13 And it's almost uncomfortable to watch some of them. It's like, what in the world does that have to do with this insurance? What in the world does that have to do with this car? What in the world does that have to do with this ice cream? And it's gotten to the point where it's absolutely ridiculous. And I have a question to ask. Do you have marketing teams anymore that actually have focal groups to ask them questions? How does this appear to you? Or how do you like this particular commercial? And did you actually pick the type of people who are consumers, not influencers? There is a difference.

44:59 And it's really making a difference in your bottom line because people don't even want to buy your product because the way you advertise it. You are acting like influencers instead of organizations that know the product well. that you're selling out there. So this is more than just people being introverts. This is going deeper into people that are more quiet. It's going into behaviors that are even affecting organizations to the point they feel like they need to be as loud as their competitor. No, you need to be as more informative than your competitor. And you will find consumers appreciate that more than the noise. Because the noise appears that you're trying to cover something up. That maybe your product isn't as good or as safe as you think it is. And so you throw all this other stuff in here, trying not to tell the truth.

46:07 So what are we doing here these days? We've gotten to the point where we set other people apart. We silence other people because of our noise, our loudness. Look at our political environment. I mean, there's so much noise. You just want to just turn everything off. And nothing's being said that makes any sense. So... We need some new ideas. We need some people that have something actually good to say. And you're not going to hear that from influencers. You're not going to hear that from noisemakers. You're not going to hear that from people who live in chaos, enjoy chaos, and do nothing but create chaos.

46:55 We need to think about the quiet power. That's sitting there quietly, waiting to be heard. But the solutions that would make a business just zoom into growth and productivity and meet goals. But we're too busy trying to be like the noisemakers instead of being you. Do you ever go back and check into your business plan And those wonderful words you wrote as to why you're in business. And what did you want to accomplish? And what do you want to provide to the consumers? Do you ever go back and look and are you living up to those words? Or are you trying to compete with the noisemakers?

47:50 That's what I'm asking you these questions. What are you doing? We need to have a real revolution, a revelation and a revolution about what we're doing and what we're turning into. We need to have a quiet revolution where we stop some of the noise. In fact, you can stop all of it, in my opinion, and start really mastering inner power, inner power, inner solutions, inner resolutions, inner leadership that considers all answers, considers all team makers, considers all opportunities, just considers everything so that they can make the right decisions because right now a lot of you are on the wrong road and moving in the wrong directions and it's because you have been not listening to those who actually have solutions and have ideas and have abilities to present things to you that would maybe put you on the right track and Have you live up to those words that you wrote when you started? that business as to

49:21 what it was you were going to provide for the consumers or provide for the people that are there that you said you were going to serve. You're a non-profit. You said you were going to do these things, but now there's noise. Go back to where you started and start living like you really believed what you first said. Was it the truth? Then rewrite it if it wasn't. But I want to encourage those who have ideas that are silent. That's your quiet power. Use your brilliance. Put it together. Present it at the right time. And you will be noticed and help a lot of organizations go in the right direction. I'm Angela Sharp. This is A Sharp Outlook. And as I always say, I would like you to be informed.
