Hey what’s up everybody, this is Karim Amri. Welcome to Coaching Secrets Podcast.

One of the things we mostly think about them is whether being Extrovert is good, or being Introvert is better, what about the Ambivert?

When it comes to people classification based on their behaviour one of the first things that come to mind is classifying based on that spectrum.

While Introvert people Recharge by spending time alone, reflecting, Extrovert individuals recharge by socializing, the more people they meet the more they are charged.

While Introvert people take their time before making decisions, even the small ones, Extroverts are quick in making decisions.

In terms of interactions, Introverts listen more, while Extroverts Speaks more

Introverts are Introspective, Self-aware and Think before they act.

Extrovert are outgoing, easily distracted and more into action.

These are some of the characteristics of the Extrovert and Introvert people,

We highlighted in previous episodes that, as coaches, connecting is a key factor for the success of any coaching partnership we have. In fact, any resistance from the client is a sign of lack of rapport and lack of connecting, and one of the things that helps in this connection is mastering the art of being an ambivert.

An ambivert is an area in the spectrum between the extrovert and introvert, where we’ll have a kind of balance between the 2 areas, a balance that will grant us to connect easily with our client, and match his type and behaviour.

As we talked about in many previous podcasts, flexibility is key for the success of any person, for a coach, it’s a must to have.

We’re meeting clients from different types,

different personalities,

different backgrounds

and different behaviour,

and it’s our role to find the most appropriate way to connect with them, and that starts by understanding their type and then , being flexible enough to match it to be like them.

At the end people who are like each other , like each other.

That’s all for today,

Thank you all for listening, keep growing and bye for now.
