Think of TWO great leaders you know personally and have worked with. What made them great leaders? What qualities did they possess? 2
What is Emotional Intelligence? Emotional intelligence is the capacity to be aware of, manage, and express one's emotions and to handle interpersonal relationships judiciously and empathetically. In practical terms, emotional intelligence is the awareness that emotions can drive our behavior and impact people (positively and negatively) and learning how to manage those emotions both our own and others especially when we are under pressure. A leader who exercises emotional intelligence uses good judgment and common sense. 3
