Summary Sentence: Watch a TED Talk and discuss the impact of introversion in our workplace

Full Summary: In a culture where being social and outgoing are prized above all else, it can be difficult, even shameful, to be an introvert. But, as Susan Cain argues in this passionate talk, introverts bring extraordinary talents and abilities to the world, and should be encouraged and celebrated. We will watch a TED Talk and discuss the impact of introversion in our workplace. Bring your lunch and join us for all or part of the discussion.
