Perception has a habit of masquerading as truth, particularly in the workplace where people make sense of us through remarkably little evidence. We introverts often leave gaps that others are only too happy to fill with their own assumptions, and that can quietly shape our reputation long before we enter the room. In this episode, I explore where perception becomes useful data rather than a personal attack, how Byron Katie's liberating questions can stop us disappearing down defensive rabbit holes, and why managing our impact is not about performance but about quiet leadership. Perhaps the real work is not convincing everyone who we are. Perhaps it is becoming clearer about what is genuinely our business.
