Difference between presenting material you are knowledgeable and confident in, against small talk with strangers in subjects or situations you aren’t comfortable in.
There's also evidence that introverts brains actually process information differently, using more parts of the brain, so it takes us longer to respond and we become overwhelmed more easily in a group setting; being prepared prevents this.
However, it can be confusing for people who don't expect someone quiet to be able to speak in public, especially when many don't realise there's a difference between introversion and shyness.
