Emotional intelligence, or EQ, can be summed up in one phrase; self awareness added to empathy for others. In this episode, we explore the key role your personality, work habits and values play in making you a successful team member and future leader. These unseen and unmeasurable qualities differentiate effective and esteemed colleagues and managers over those petty bosses who focus only on themselves. We underline the critical importance that self-reflection, regulating our impulses and resilience play in improving our EQ.
