How self-aware are you?
Welcome..
to the first edition of the Emotionally-i-Fit newsletter on Emotional Intelligence in relation to Leadership. Each bi-monthly edition will feature the latest news, articles, tips and upcoming events on the subject of EI and its role in successful leadership performance. We have taken the liberty of connecting with you by sending you this newsletter. You are in our network so will hopefully appreciate its content.
We are passionate about Emotional Intelligence and its positive impact on leadership and management, and would love to share a little of that passion with you. However, if at any time you wish to unsubscribe please use the button at the bottom of this issue. We're emotionally resilient and our feelings won't be hurt! If, however, you want to fulfil your own leadership potential or are responsible for developing talent, this is a topic we'd highly recommend you explore.
“Leadership is not domination, but the art of persuading people to work toward a common goal.”
― Daniel Goleman

In today's volatile and changing multi-generational and multi-cultural workplaces there are many different attitudes and values. It has become more important than ever to focus on EI in order to maintain an engaged and motivated workforce. The pressure on leaders to be more agile and adaptable to a vast array of individual needs has never been so prevalent. Leaders play a key role in demonstrating and instilling emotionally intelligent behaviours. We are finding that this is a HOT topic and more organisations are realising the importance of equipping leaders with the right tools to understand themselves in order to relate to others better.
The good news is, that like any business skill, EI can be assessed, nurtured and developed. The starting point for this is AWARENESS of oneself, AWARENESS of our attitudes, feelings and behaviours and the impact all three have on performance and business results.

Blog: Who pushes your buttons?
Our latest blog deals with an issue that is crucial for successful leadership and management: how to handle tricky relationships.
I am often asked the question – how can I change my behaviour when certain relationships push my buttons?
I am sure anyone reading this can identify. We all have blind spots in relationships and games that we have perfected over years to protect us from experiencing strong emotions...

''Amanda really aligned her approach to fit the needs of our business and everyone benefited greatly from the day she organised. The feedback was 100% positive. She also coached one of the people in my team live in front of others, that took courage and really demonstrated how in a very short space of time, a conversation can change someone's views on their own life and how to better themselves."
