Leadership in the Moment episodes

  • 3. Cultivating Emotional Intelligence

    In this episode, I aim to delve deeper into Emotional Intelligence and demonstrate how leaders can cultivate it within the workplace culture. I'll explore how leaders prioritizing people-first or human-centered strategies can set the benchmark for fostering authentic relationships across the work culture using Daniel Goleman's Emotional Intelligence Framework.

    For leaders to manage people differently, they need to consider the significant impact emotions and relationships have on engagement and culture in the workplace. Join me as we narrow the lens on leadership effectiveness and help leaders understand their pivotal role in influencing and inspiring others in relationships.  

    In this episode:

    • Cultivating Emotional Intelligence in the workplace using Daniel Goleman’s Framework.
  • Increasing leader self-awareness on how emotions impact and influence engagement.  
  • Reflective questions on managing emotions from the Skye Team in their book, “You, Me, Why We All Need a Friend at Work and How to Show Up as One.”
  • Highlighting the effects positive emotions have on personal and organizational performance.
  • Insights from Work Human’s webinar, “How feedback can contribute to building connections in the work culture.”
