The Top 6
Self-Awareness

Motivation
Social Skills

Self-Awareness
Being self-aware means understanding one's emotions, strengths, weaknesses, and how these affect others.
In my work in education, this skill is crucial for leaders and employees alike, allowing individuals to manage their reactions and behaviors effectively.
Self-Regulation
This involves controlling or redirecting one's disruptive emotions and impulses.
In a business setting, self-regulation helps individuals handle change, stay flexible, and manage conflict in a constructive and calm manner.
And demand is ever rising...
Empathy
Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another person.
In the workplace, empathetic leaders and employees can better navigate social complexities, lead teams, and interact with diverse clients or colleagues, thereby fostering cohesion.
Motivation
Self-motivation refers to the inner drive to pursue goals with energy and persistence. High levels of intrinsic motivation can lead to higher productivity and encourage a positive, goal-oriented attitude among teams.
I spoke to a CEO recently who listed this #1 !
Social Skills
These are skills used to interact and communicate effectively with others.
In business, good social skills enable better teamwork, effective communication, and conflict resolution. This can lead to improved collaboration and fewer workplace misunderstandings.
Teamwork
Teamwork is enhanced by all facets of emotional intelligence.
It requires understanding and managing one's emotions and those of others to collaborate effectively. Emotional intelligence fosters a team environment.
Team work makes the dream-work after all...
Get Your Thinking Caps On...
I see a real opportunity for people to launch a startup focused on EI training for businesses!
