Overview
Organisations function via the union of processes and people. When these work in harmony, we find successful, effective business and service providers. However, it is often the relationships amongst work colleagues that can render even the most developed processes as useless.
Some people are more successful than others at developing relationships with those around them; these people are described as having high levels of Emotional Intelligence. It has been proven in a number of industries that staff with high levels of Emotional Intelligence are more effective than those without. In Scandinavia, a well known and respected hotel group increased their turnover by 20% by using resources with high Emotional Intelligence.
Emotional Intelligence is not a trait that is fixed, but a state that can be developed, with self awareness being a pivotal. The use of the Strength Deployment Inventory (SDI) is an extremely useful tool in increasing our self awareness and therefore developing our Emotional Intelligence.
Various research has shown that Emotional Intelligence contributes directly to the bottom line in any organization, and deficits in Emotional Intelligence can have major negative effects. Ensuring high Emotional Intelligence in executives can have a number of major benefits, the three primary ones being;
• Ability to handle cultural change,
• Ability to work well in a team,
• Good interpersonal relations.
