Humans. There’s no question that, like it or not, we’re emotional beings. 

The question is: are you managing your emotions? Or are your emotions managing you? 

In this informative and thought-provoking speech, Margaret Andrews explores the concept of emotional intelligence, or EI. EI is the ability to recognize and positively manage emotions in yourself and others—and it’s a powerful component of effective leadership. 

Understanding and developing EI helps us understand and manage ourselves, develop resiliency, build and maintain strong personal and professional relationships, and successfully lead others.

EI is the secret sauce of leadership—and this speech reveals the reasons why. You’ll learn the “tells'' of someone who lacks EI, and the very predictable environments those leaders tend to create. You’ll also discover how you can gain greater self-awareness—which is the foundation of EI—and use EI to uplevel your ability to lead.
