Susan Cain, Princeton '89 says contemporary culture holds a decided bias toward the "extrovert ideal" and dramatically undervalues the talents of introverts. No longer. In her bestselling book, Quiet, and in her record-smashing TED talk, Cain shows audiences how to change the way we work, lead, and teach in order to tap the abundant strengths of the quieter half of the population./nQuiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking has sparked a genuine international conversation about introverts, who comprise a third to a half of every workplace and classroom, and whose natural talents we can no longer afford to waste./nQuiet was an instant New York Times bestseller, has been translated into 30 languages, and was one of the most talked about books of 2012. Cain's TED Talk, meanwhile, smashed a first-week record with over a million views ( it has since passed 3.5 million views). Fast Company writes that Cain's extraordinary efforts have "galvanized a movement against society's blanket favoritism toward loud-talking, brainstorm-favoring extroverts."/nCain, a Princeton and Harvard Law School educated author, has practiced corporate law for seven years, representing clients like General Electric, and was a negotiations consultant, where she trained everyone from hedge fund managers to TV producers to college grads navigating their first jobs./nAs a speaker, Cain's clients have included Fast Company, Rochester University, Johnson & Johnson, Steelcase, and the International Women's Forum, among many others.
