It’s not about being introvert or extrovert. Introvert don’t express even if they know it’s correct. Extrovert don’t stop talking and argue even it’s wrong. So as a professional you have to be good in communication especially if your work involves working with others. You have to know what to, what not to and when to talk.
Absolutely true! If you’re extrovert in your profession (not just medical), you can knock and open unexpected doors too. Every interaction has some hidden learning, or the knowledge to seek.
