"I'd rather get on with some actual work than create a stupid document about me to pander to management's latest whim-du-jour."
I guess it hasn't occurred to them that most introverts would hate having to write about themselves in this way, and a reasonable subset wouldn't be interested in reading what the extroverts have to say about themselves either.
A far better approach is to not have any preconceived ideas about your colleagues, and discover how you interact best as and when the need arises. There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach for how different people should interact with an individual.

There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach for how different people should interact with an individual. Sounds very extroverted and without any issues in bothering other people /s Honestly, a humble "README" for the person is something I'm coming to appreciate more and more, at least so long as it's humble and not condescending to people. Especially as someone both introverted, and as it turns out, on the autistic spectrum (nice bomb to find out after 34 years :V)
