On this week's episode, Hile and I tackle two of the foundational elements of emotional intelligence (EQ): emotional self-awareness and empathy. Countless books and articles have been written about these skills and Hile helped me realize something that I had not thought of...there are really just two sides to the same coin.

We explore how leaders high in these skills can manage themselves and others in more effective ways. And, we discuss a handful of tips and tricks to help you build your emotional self-awareness and empathy.
