""A noisy ego describes a person who is constantly thinking about themselves. They're asking 'Am I OK?' 'Are they insulting me?' It’s a self-referencing, self-oriented noise.""
""A quiet ego is characterized by being mindful, emotionally intelligent, compassionate, and growth-oriented. This mindset may alleviate feelings of burnout and enhance leadership effectiveness.""
