As many of us gather around tables with family and friends this week, we thought we'd spend a little time revisiting and digging deeper on one of Scott's favorite subjects—emotional intelligence. Simply, when business leaders adopt a practice of leading with emotional intelligence, the ROI is clear. Your team responds better, works harder, and is more vested in the success of the business. It helps build trust between you and your people; it makes them feel valued and when your team feels valued, they feel a part of the organization and not just another cog in the wheel.

Take some time this week, tune in and listen to consider raising your EQ IQ and bringing emotional intelligence in as a part of your leadership style.

It is not uncommon for a manager to struggle in their position no matter how much potential they possess, or time in the position they have. Being a manager is a position of continual growth.

In episode 18 of The CEO Podcast, Scott and Vince talk about the struggles facing most new managers. They share from their experience and talk about what it means to be a manager. As most business leaders know, supporting and fostering the growth of their people is a worthwhile investment. The ROI is clear. Investing in your front-line managers, and supporting their development and evolution into leadership, not only helps them grow personally and professionally but in turn, will also help enable them to become a catalyst for your business's growth.

In episode 17, Scott and Vince talk about executive presence. Far from a one-size-fits-all approach, executive presence is as much about humility and #vulnerability as it is about commanding the room. Looking at it from a modern perspective, it is about adapting to the situation and knowing what that moment calls for in the moment. Gone are the days of simply being a hardliner, executive presence in 2021 is a much more complicated business leadership skill.

In episode 16 of The CEO Podcast, Scott sits down with his co-host, Vince Moiso to discuss Vince's new book entitled, How to Survive the Wilderness. They will talk about why Vince wrote the book, what it's about, and who it's for. They'll dive into the chapters and even discuss the concepts and approaches outlined and highlighted throughout the book.

The book, much like this podcast, is designed to aggregate knowledge from some of the best business gurus and combine it with experience share to make it easier for entrepreneurs and high performers to find a direct path to growing themselves, the people around them, and their business.

In episode 15, Scott and Vince discuss leading with emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence (otherwise known as emotional quotient or EQ) is the ability to understand, use, and manage your own emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict. When business leaders decide to employ EI/EQ as a part of their leadership approach, the ROI tends to be significant. Simply, we find that IF YOU CARE about your people, THEY WILL CARE about you and your business.

Tune in today for the full episode to learn more about leading with emotional intelligence and consider the potential for positive opportunity and growth for yourself, your people, and your business.

The negotiation process will involve conflict—without question. How heated that conflict becomes depends on a lot of things, but the conflict will take place. A great way of working toward achieving the outcome you desire from the negotiation is by employing a conflict resolution approach and focusing on setting the tone for the conversation, using the right body language—and reading the body language of the person across the table from you (learn more in episode 11, "More than Words")— asking the right questions, recognizing the power differences, and much, much, more. Tune in today to hear how Scott and Vince have effectively employed a conflict resolution process to help build their businesses and see if you can add this to your personal skillset.

Conflict happens. It happens everywhere. In our personal lives and in our professional lives. BUT, conflict DOES NOT always have to be a fight. When you really break it down, conflict is merely a difference of opinion. The art of reframing conflict in your mind will provide opportunity, help you better achieve your goals, and foster additional growth. Whether this desired success is in your career, your business, or your personal life, breaking down this barrier could be huge for you.

What if conflict could be a good thing? What if it could become the foundation for synergy and success? Tune in to episode 13 to find out.
