3 Ways Authentic Leaders Benefit From Higher EQ
Authentic leaders know that consciously working on their emotional intelligence (EI) or EQ (Emotional Quotient) score is not only critical to leadership success but also a life-long journey.
According to TTI Talent Insights, a higher EQ makes you a better authentic leader by:
Focus on Yourself....
As you become more and more self-aware, you are then more able to self-regulate and ultimately improve your relationships with others.
Improving Rapport, Connection & Communication....
An authentic leader consistently behaves in congruence with their values, the organization’s mission, and makes people proud to work under this leader. The authentic leader that is socially aware and is mastering social regulation, understands the emotions of others and how to positively influence the emotional clarity of others. In other words, the authentic leader is very skilled at the art of observation and active listening.
Increasing Your Empathy....
The authentic leader inspires their people to believe in themselves and their work. This is that internal motivation is the “fire” that goes beyond external drive. Your internal fire will inspire others to light their own internal fires.
