Higher emotional intelligence is the differentiator between an exemplary leader and one who is not. High EI has been proven to give one climbing the ladder a competitive edge, setting them apart from other candidates.IQ and technical expertise are no longer sufficient to be successful as a leader or to move up in an organization.
When you are high in emotional intelligence, you, as a leader, are able to increase employee engagement, retention and performan ce because you:
- Demonstrate the ability to manage your own emotions
- Understand your effect on your team
- Are able to resolve conflict effectively and quickly
- Have enhanced communication and listening skills
- Are able to stay calm in times of stress, conflict and challenges
- Make better decisions under pressure
- Recognize when emotions are influencing your thinking
- Understand and gauge the emotions and psychological states of others
Increasing your EI is probably one of the best investments you can make for yourself and for your organization. Being smart is not enough. If you cannot manage yourself, your technical expertise is compromised, and team morale goes down. Emotionally intelligent leaders inspire others, boosting morale and thus increasing productivity and employee performan ce.
