Do you ever feel like you’re doing everything right at work — yet still get overlooked because you’re not the loudest voice in the room?
The Powerful Introvert Podcast is where quiet professionals learn to turn their natural calm, thoughtfulness, and empathy into powerful leadership assets.
Hosted by Greg Weinger, a tech executive with over 25 years of experience who built his career by leading quietly, this show reveals how introverts can rise with confidence, earn what they deserve, and lead authentically — without pretending to be someone they’re not.
In each episode, you’ll discover how to:
- Communicate with clarity and confidence without forcing extroversion.
- Earn recognition and income that reflect your true value.
- Lead teams, meetings, and change with quiet authority and calm influence.
If you’ve ever felt undervalued or discouraged from rising in leadership, this show will help you start valuing your quiet strengths so you can get promoted and earn what you deserve.

#33 - Why Flow States Unlock Creative Ideas that Make You Irreplaceable
In this first interview I speak with Jeff Cowan. We met 14 years ago at a local tech company where I was abruptly introduced to his team as their new manager. The team was cut out of the process and the news of my hiring, in Jeff's words, “was not universally well received.” This was my first stint as an engineering manager, and Jeff was really kind and helped me navigate some pretty choppy waters.
Jeff is an introvert and a very well-respected technical leader. We discuss:
* his journey as a technical leader
* the importance of self-awareness for introverts
* how we can take care of ourselves in high stimulus environments
* how the workplace has changed over the years
* we lament the demise of the private office
* and speculate if we're all just Guinea pigs in some architect’s, grand social experiment
I had a fantastic time talking to Jeff and I'm so appreciative of his being my first guest. Hope you enjoy the episode!
