The most powerful advantage in your agency might not be what you think—it’s understanding how your people work best. In this episode, I sit down with Ashley Harwood, entrepreneur, national speaker, and author of Move Over Extroverts, to explore how introverts and extroverts can work together to create balance, trust, and unstoppable growth within your team.

Ashley and I dive into why so many agencies unknowingly operate with a bias toward extroversion, and how recognizing and empowering introverts can unlock new levels of productivity and retention. She shares practical tools to help leaders identify personality dynamics, build stronger relationships, and create an environment where every team member thrives. Whether you’re leading producers, CSRs, or leadership teams, this episode is about scaling smarter—by leveraging your people’s natural strengths and energy to fuel sustainable business growth.
