Emotional Intelligence

Why being smart isn’t enough for productivity, success and fulfilment at work

Emotions matter more than we realise. They impact motivation and productivity, creativity, decision-making, relationships and the performance appraisals we give. They even affect integrity and character. Yet emotions are often misunderstood, especially at work. When emotions surface with colleagues – and even clients – they are all-too-often ignored, or worse, shut down.

Research shows that raising our EQ – our emotional intelligence – can have an instant impact on relationships, behaviours, achievement, results and wellbeing, far beyond anything related to IQ. It can also transform staff engagement and productivity – an ongoing and draining issue for every manager.
