Black Introvert Week UK

Black Introvert Week UK is a new initiative from The Introvert Space (https://www.linkedin.com/groups/14004874) to help Britain’s Black Introverts reach their full potential in life. One in three Britons are introverts, yet research shows it’s extroverts at the front of the queue for pay rises and promotions. The implications for Black introverts – a minority within a minority – are clear. Black Introvert Week UK was launched to educate teachers and employers on how to recognise and nurture the talents of Black introverts and give voice to this most misunderstood community. We have four main aims: 1. Create the right conditions for young, Black introverts to reach their full potential in life – from classroom to boardroom 2. Support teachers and employers to better understand how to recognise and nurture the talents of Black introverts 3. Raise awareness and understanding of the value that Black introverts bring to a team or a classroom 4. Support Black introverts to have a voice about their experiences
