The introvert-extrovert spectrum
Most people aren't purely introvert or extrovert. Research shows 68% of people are ambiverts — somewhere in between.
Where you fall
- 10-20: Strong introvert — energy comes from solitude
- 21-30: Leaning introvert — social but needs recharge time
- 31-40: Ambivert — flexible, adapts to both contexts
- 41-50: Strong extrovert — energy comes from people
Research says
- Ambiverts are the best salespeople — better than extroverts (Grant 2013)
- Introversion/extroversion is 40-60% genetic
- Your position on the spectrum shifts with context — you're not one thing all the time
- Neither is better — it's about understanding your energy patterns
