Emotional Intelligence for Leaders: Master These 3 Steps!

What is emotional intelligence? How can leaders build emotional intelligence? And why is emotional intelligence important for leaders to develop?

If you're an emerging leader or an established leader, you've probably heard of this term, "emotional intelligence". You might have a vague understanding of what it is and how to develop it. You may even feel that you are emotionally intelligent yourself.

But what I've learned (and research I talk about in this video backs this up) is that most people who think they're emotionally intelligent, are actually not.

If you want to deepen your understanding of emotional intelligence and learn how to build emotional intelligence as a leader, watch this video!

Hi Kara, I have been following your channel for quite some time now and I really appreciate you.

I wanted to share with you something that triggered a question for me and that is "why do we say anger/stress/frustration are negative emotions?" I believe that are really usefull emotions, and I love that some people are calling them "uncomfortable" emotions instead of negative, that way you can embrace them from a different perspective and use them to recognize why they were there in the first place :)

Lots of love and thank you for all the content that you share. You are great!

I once heard a remarkable leader attribute his company's success to the culture, explaining that people were drawn to it because he personally made an effort to connect with one employee each day, asking about their likes and dislikes.

Yes, it's important to start by being self aware. Thank you

[sudhindrachakrawarthi]

It's a great video, nicely explained. Thanks Kara for this wonderful video. Yes this is very important for any leader to judge others emotions as well as his own.

Great video! Today, many people including executives pay very little attention to Emotional Intelligence. They are more like a boss than a leader.

Hello and Good.morning.Your videos are very informative mam.

I would like to know two things.

1. For the last 2 years I have been in my job and recently my boss got changed. I have analysed more almost 400 cases in the last 2 years. However my previous boss labelled me to my new boss as my analysis is not good. That I found very strange and lowers my confidence.

2. One of my juniors who joined after 1 year I joined, I asked for some help from him as I was short of productivity. Instead of giving me a case he asked me for help from me. Is it right on my part to not help him. I feel he does it deliberately.

Hello @kara, i believe you maybe removed the background music which was somehow noisy in the old videos. if no i hope you consider that. Thanks
