Episode 30: A Bull in the China Shop & Emotional Intelligence

Whitney Tate and Delcia Petersen explore the practical side of Emotional Intelligence as it is most often encountered in the workplace. What is the cost of being  'A Bull in the China Shop' as it relates to EIQ?  How do we each avoid being that bull in the china shop in our own workplace, dismissive of competence about it at our own immense personal cost? If Emotional Intelligence is arguably the greatest predictor of success in a leader and in success within any given career, then how do we use it as an asset rather than suffer from the lack of success with it as a liability.
