When I’m on set as a model, as an executive producer, as a mentor, I don’t speak. I work with photographers now that I’ve worked with since I was sixteen; twenty eight years. We could talk all day long. [However,] for me to be able to have that boundary [with outsiders], because we’ve got work to do, I don’t speak until lunch time or break time when…we’re off camera.
-Naomi Campbell, The Graham Norton Show, 2014
After being harshly interrogated on The Graham Norton Show about tabloid rumors, Naomi Campbell calmly discussed her working method. Compartmentalized socializing is how she creates an atmosphere of respect while maintaining a strong work ethic within her team. For so long, the press constantly misrepresented her point of view and behavior. Naomi is a great example of a woman setting respectful boundaries to maintain professionalism at work while protecting her energy…and she might even be an introvert from the sound of it!
Have a Pleasant Day
