Episode 8: Social Awareness in Leadership

EQ leaders subscribe to the adage, “take care of the people and the people will take care of the business.”  During this pandemic, it is critical to think of how employees are impacted by the changes.  

Emotionally Intelligent leaders demonstrate a genuine interest and commitment to the vulnerability, fears, and pain of their team.  Strong social awareness allows leaders to identify with and understand the wants, needs, and viewpoints of those around them.
