Differences

"General Managers are frequently outgoing and gregarious. They enjoy being parts of groups and in the center of the action and are often sports oriented. They tend to believe that others are like them and that others feel as they do about everything...

The sort of extroverted people I'm describing here frequently define themselves by their possessions, especially a very nice car...

Turning to the programming, the most effective Program Directors have to be able to get into the listener's head and perceive the station the way the listeners do. This mandates the ability to see and understand the points of view of others. This ability is often associated with a somewhat introverted personality..

.It may have occurred to you that these two personality types also tend to represent the two personality types found in most successful marriages. In truth, opposites do attract in marriages, but they don't often attract in relationships between people of the same gender, as in a business relationship. Being such opposites, even though this is the most common situation, can lead to problems between a PD and a GM as they attempt to work together."

This is what Eric said.
