Nearly the entire field of psychology and especially developmental psychology has been normed on white elite males and then generalized to females. Although the virtues and styles of women leaders have often been classified as lesser and even demeaned, we are now seeing the power and effectiveness of those behaviors, especially in leadership. Dr Stacy Feiner, Dr Kathy Overbeke and their colleagues have authored a new look at a holistic developmental model which they call The Sixth Level. In this session we discuss how they came to their model and how it adds to our understanding of both human development and leadership.

While emotional intelligence is about knowing your own reactions so that you can better deal with situations, we are currently facing several events so tragic that friends we may know are experiencing trauma (e.g., Fires in Maui and floods in Vermont). In this session I discuss the difference between how we can support friends in trauma and the more normal emotional responses we have on a daily basis. Using Maui as an example I talk about how that type of support can look and contrast that with what I present in the book (Learning To Feel) as our. regular, run-of-the-mill emotional reactions.

In this session I get to talk with transformational coach and healer, Linda Manning, where we explore the relationship between emotional health and personal health. Often our failure or refusal to embrace our own negative emotions not only blocks us from understanding what is behind them, but it frequently is stored in our bodies as negative and painful blockages. Emotional maturity begins with accepting our feelings in a way that we are then able to deal effectively with them.

In this session I discuss what having emotional intelligence can do to improve relationship effectiveness. I provide several examples, including some personal examples, of how listening to the other person in the relationship provides a greater understanding and context for what that person is trying to communicate.

In this session I talk with Dr Stacy Feiner who not only is a business coach but has done work with elite athletes. We discuss how much emotions play a role in the overall performance of the athlete, what their reactions were during the pandemic lockdown and the distinctions between “funk” and “slump”. Stacy and I both found that with athletes we had to first find our unique role in that relationship to be effective – something that athletes were very quick to respond to.

This session is a brief discussion reflecting on a conversation I had over the weekend  with a woman who was turned off by a man’s emotions. I talk about the role of emotions as an access to our inner thoughts and beliefs. Emotions are the doorway and once we open the door, we can see where the source of our feelings are and then make the choice to change our interpretations that are at the source of those feelings.

The post Session #7 The Power of Emotional Intelligence appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

With my guest, Dr Stacy Feiner, a business psychologist, we discuss how important it is to learn emotional intelligence and how that can empower a leader’s ability to lead. Why do we find ourselves in a situation where we need to learn emotions since emotions are one of the most foundational aspects  of being human. Emotional awareness and emotional intelligence is a process not a state we can “get to.”

In this session I talk with my long time colleague and business partner, Yuka Nakasone, who is an internationally renowned globalization expert. Yuka speaks five languages and understands some of the nuances that come from those and other cultures. We spend a good deal of time talking about what are called high-context cultures like Japan and China where emotions are not discussed outwardly for the most part as contrasted with low context cultures like the US, Germany and Great Britain.

The post Session #5 Emotions across cultures appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

A lot of people think of emotions as positive and negative – either light and upbeat ones or downers. But emotions in reality are neither. They are sources of good information and this session discusses how to unpack emotions to understand what they can teach us. In a sense emotions instruct us on what we should do; they set us in motion, if you will.
