WP Engine founder and CTO Jason Cohen shares the importance of understanding your strengths, weaknesses, and preferences when building your professional life. Instead of just blindly assuming that you need to be the next Bill Gates, Cohen encourages introverted managers and leaders to redefine success for themselves. Do you feel comfortable with leadership and enjoy attending networking events? Great! Get out there and be the CEO.



Do you prefer to pass on a leadership role and instead leverage your strengths in other areas? Also great!



It's all about understanding yourself and being aware of what you truly want. Yes, it's certainly important to push yourself and get out of your comfort zone in order to grow, but that doesn't mean saddling yourself with a business or career you don't enjoy.
