Inget att frukta

Many of us around the world are confronting the harsh reality of economic uncertainty.  In many respects fear has eclipsed rational thinking and created a reality not wholly based on fact - perception became reality.  Fear has replaced rational thought.

This article from bizjournals brought me back to reality.  I (we) can’t use coping behaviours that play into the fear and self doubt, but need to focus on what I (we) can control.  Now more than ever we need to leverage our individual and collective knowledge.

Författaren detaljer fem beteenden som drabbade hem med mig:

Håll dig jordad

Bly med medkänsla

Maintain a realistic optimism

Stödja varandra

Go with the energy

Den sociala diagrammet är skit?

El Reg har ett intressant läsa: sociala nätverk kan vara imaginära.

Emotionell intelligens i näringslivet

I came across this white paper on Emotional Intelligence (EQ) .  The paper is focused predominantly on the American male and paints a very interesting and bleak picture if things don’t change.

American males (according to this paper) are rewarded for being impulsive in business.  What we need is to channel that impulsiveness through emotional intelligence so that we will stay competitive with knowledge workers throughout the world.

What is EQ?

• Self Awareness
• Self Management
• Välgörenhet
• Relationship Management

EQ can and should complement quick thinking and decision making skills to allow for better decision making and action taking.  EQ and being a cowboy do not have to be mutually exclusive.

If we can truly tap our EQ, we all just might see greater productivity, and increased morale in the workplace.

American males, quit being a cowboy and find your softer side!
