EXPLORING THE IMPACT OF INTROVERSION AND EXTROVERSION ON CAREER SUCCESS IN POST-PANDEMIC HYBRID AND REMOTE WORK ENVIRONMENTS

In the case of career success, individuals often rely on traditional factors such as IQ, education, or skill set. However, as more research surfaces, researchers have taken into consideration that psychological factors such as introversion and extroversion can influence career trajectory. As many studies previously mentioned, extroverts are sociable and have an out-going nature while introverts tend to be reflective and reserved. However, how do these traits interact with modern work environments, especially considering the aftermath COVID-19 has left us? Due to the pandemic, hybrid and remote work have been implemented, affecting how introverts and extroverts can thrive in their careers. This study aims to explore the impact of introversion and extroversion on career success, including job performance, career development, work behavior, and interpersonal relationships, especially post-pandemic. Considering how the pandemic introduced remote or hybrid working habits, this has reshaped how introverts and extroverts interact with their work environments; this merits the need for a new study.
