Karl Moore on taking an extrovert break

Published: 5 June 2017
Karl Moore can talk to anyone, writes prolifically, and lends his expertise on a wide range of subjects. But in a recent piece for Forbes, the Desautels Professor admits that one thing he can鈥檛 do is work from home.
He blames it on the fact that he is an extrovert: after a few hours spent banging out a book, Prof. Moore needs human contact in order to recharge his batteries.
He calls it taking an 鈥渆xtrovert break,鈥 and it鈥檚 exactly the opposite of the alone time that an introverted manager often needs in order to remain effective.
