Stephen Hawking used to say that quiet people have the loudest minds.

Do you agree?

I do and I do think that your impact is immeasurable. Let's think through it together and reflect on the strategies how to make our introversion shine!
Committee pitch:

In today's fast-paced, extrovert-dominated tech environment, the contributions of quiet engineers often go unnoticed.

This talk aims to shift this paradigm by shining a light on the assets that introverted professionals bring to the table. This talk not only challenges stereotypes but also offers actionable insights for leveraging the unique strengths of quiet individuals in the engineering field.

This talk will provide a roadmap for both organizations and quiet professionals on how to maximize their potential. By doing so, we aim to foster a more inclusive and productive work environment that values diversity in thought and approach.

Please see proposed agenda:
- Explore the psychological and social dynamics that underscore the introvert-extrovert spectrum in the workplace, with a particular focus on the engineering sector.

- practical strategies for organizations to create an environment where quiet engineers can thrive
- Equip quiet engineers with tools to share their opinion

I think of this talk as more than just a presentation - it's a movement towards recognizing the quiet power within our teams.
