Develop Your Leadership Competencies - Emotional Intelligence
“People with well-developed emotional skills are also more likely to be content and effective
in their lives, mastering the habits of mind that foster their own productivity.” — Daniel Goleman
Emotional intelligence is paramount to individual and organisational success and can be learnt and developed over a lifetime.
Leaders often do not receive emotional intelligence training as part of their development and often do not understand what emotional intelligence competencies actually mean or how their behaviours impact others. This can mean they believe their own strong characteristics are strengths, when in fact some are actually “de-railers” and do not know how to adapt their behaviours in different situations to improve Emotional Intelligence effectiveness.
