category. As Janet Farrall and Leonie
Kronborg write in Leadership Development
for the Gifted and Talented:
While extroverts tend to attain leadership
in public domains, introverts
tend to attain leadership in theoretical
and aesthetic fields. Outstanding
introverted leaders, such as
Charles Darwin, Marie Curie, Patrick
White and Arthur Boyd, who have
created either new fields of thought
or rearranged existing knowledge,
have spent long periods of their
lives in solitude. Hence leadership
does not only apply in social situations,
but also occurs in more solitary
situations such as developing
new techniques in the arts, creating
new philosophies, writing profound
books and making scientific
breakthroughs.
