Emotional Intelligence as a Foundation to Solving All Of Our Problems
Share Your Tips and Take-aways with me!
Strengthening our emotional intelligence is honing a crucial life skill that can significantly enhance our overall well-being. It equips us with the ability to better manage stress, navigate conflicts, and foster healthier relationships, ultimately leading to reduced anxiety and improved mental health. By becoming more emotionally intelligent, we gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and others, paving the way for greater personal contentment and a more fulfilling life. And we can avoid the traps of feedback falling into one of four quadrants along the axes of caring personally and challenging directly: “obnoxious aggression,” “manipulative insincerity,” and “ruinous empathy,” (Read Kim Scott's book for more on that if you too desire a "bullshit free zone where people love their work and working together". I think this applies to any of the spaces that we live and interact with others on a regular basis - it's not just for bosses.)
