Getting to the Heart of the Matter
Our perceptions are our realities. No amount of rational analysis is going to overcome feelings that are deeply embedded. Much as we would sometimes like to deal with an issue on a logical, data and fact-based level, we are naive to think emotions will not impact the conclusions. You can expand your leadership effectiveness by learning to understand and relate to others in an emotionally intelligent manner.

Understanding the Brain's Impact on EQ
The brain is a complex, highly structured instrument which separates the activities for emotions and intellect according to specific biological needs. Working together, emotions and intellect give us the capacity for Emotional Intelligence, providing meaning to what we learn and determining how we use the information. Good leaders demonstrate good Emotional Intelligence, and that includes understanding and managing your own emotions, being able to read other people's emotions, and having the social skills to lead and manage relationships.

Get Rid of Roadblocks to Good EQ
It's not enough to create a great vision and mission for your organization. You have to create a culture to match. Leaders have the power to build an environment for success, to build commitment in their employees, to increase confidence and decision making skills and improve work performance. It's a matter of good Emotional Intelligence at work and working for you. Be wary of management attitudes and actions that can create roadblocks to effective workplace EQ.

Why New Workers Fail
According to a recent study by Leadership IQ, 46% of newly hired employees will fail within 18 months, while only 19% will achieve unequivocal success. Contrary to popular belief, technical skills are not the primary reason why new hires fail. Instead, poor interpersonal skills dominate the list, flaws which many of their managers admit were overlooked during the interview process.
