Whether you are facing a visionary extrovert who loves the sound of their own voice or a data-driven introvert who values logic above all else, you need a specific strategy. We discuss how to stop "fan-girling" over the CEO and how to start engaging them in a way that proves you are a high-autonomy, low-risk hire.
