Emotional Intelligence & Leadership

Gone are the days when a high IQ alone can get one by satisfactorily. Success in the workplace now depends upon one’s special ability to combine IQ with emotional intelligence or better known as EQ.

So, what is EQ?  It refers to the capacity for recognising your own feelings and those of others for motivating yourself, and for managing emotions well in yourself and in your relationships.

Many people go to work but do not find satisfaction at work.  Others go to work, feel good, but may not be performing to their best abilities.  The reasons vary… yet one fact remains: we need to work.  So, if we have to do something, then let us do it willingly, happily, and be good at our tasks.

Having high EQ leads to higher motivation, creativity, achievement, accountability, less violence and lifelong success.
