Lead on Purpose with James Laughlin

How to Improve your EQ


Listen Later

Learn how to improve your EQ with a seven time world champion and leadership coach.   When we think about EQ, we think about how you relate to others and how others relate to you. Rapport, empathy, compassion, understanding: all those words come to mind. And I want to talk about one particular aspect of HOW to develop better EQ. And it's a really simple one.  Most of us have been gifted with two ears that work really well. And that's a real gift. That's a true gift.

So, I want you to think about your listening abilities. And whether you truly listen, whether you listen to understand whether you listen to judge, whether you listen for leverage, whether you listen to advise, and really think about the power of listening. 

And when we think about it, the greatest leaders of all time, one great skill they had was their ability to listen. Nelson Mandela is an amazing leader that I've talked about a lot over the years, I've done quite a bit of study around him and spoke with some of his family members and interviewed them just about how he carried himself and how he developed such an incredible amount of EQ. He was renowned the world over for being able to relate to people, So, how did he develop those skills? 

Let's dive in and improve your emotional skills.
