In this episode of the Emotional Intelli-gents Podcast, we seek to make the case for why businesses, particularly in today’s work environment, must proactively promote emotionally intelligent leaders and implement EQ centric policies to maximize productivity.  Businesses today, more than ever, are grappling with balancing the traditional approach to achieving profitability and the seemingly ambiguous emotional needs of their teams who drive the profitable growth.   Today’s episode will dispel the notion that emotionally intelligent people and policies will not move the profitability needle enough for companies to commit to improving in the EQ space.  The episode will share the findings of Project Aristotle, Google’s now infamous study, which defines the essence of what drives top tier teams performance and productivity.  We will discuss other data-driven studies and concrete examples clearly demonstrating why emotional intelligence skills are a ‘must-have’ for businesses and can no longer be treated as a ‘nice-to-have’.
