While extroverts are often seen as natural leaders in organizations, people may find overly extroverted bosses too pushy or annoying.
A moderate amount of assertiveness and warmth may be optimal. One factor that helps highly extroverted leaders receive better marks from their peers: prosocial motivation, or the desire to look out for others’ welfare.
Leaders who were extroverted tended to be better liked and more sought after for advice by their team members but only up to a point.
Leaders who rate themselves as very assertive or very warm tend to see a drop-off in how much their fellow team members liked them and sought their advice.
If you’re too assertive as a team member, people think you’re pushy and they don’t like that
