Leading with Emotional Intelligence

Did you ever wonder why some really intelligent, educated people with great experience seem clueless when it comes to relating to and leading people successfully? The short answer is that there’s more than one kind of intelligence. Successfully relating to others, and becoming a great leader centers on the type of intelligence that deals with emotions.

The easiest way to understand the term Emotional Intelligence (EI) is to look at it as the “intangibles” that predict success in the workplace. The great news about EI is that it can be broken down into a set of concrete skills that can be learned.

So, what exactly do the gifts of emotional intelligence comprise?

• Self-awareness and Control

Personal influence is the ability to confront issues that are important or debilitating to relationships, goals, missions, or visions. Personal influence is also exhibiting motivation for one’s visions, missions, core values, and beliefs.
