Which of these problems do you face in your organisation?
- a boss that everyone is scared of, who consequently only hears
about bad news when it's too late
- resistance to change, based on fear
- high staff turnover
- a dysfunctional team, where no-one is
addressing the people problems
- a negative emotional climate, where people
come to work because they have to, not because they want to
- people who are
scared to take the initiative in case they make a mistake
It's
uncomfortable to even think about what the future impact of these problems will be if they
are not addressed - which is maybe why they continue.
Emotionally intelligent
organisations handle these problems. They create emotional climates and working practices,
and encourage leadership styles, which make their people want to bring the whole of their
creativity and enthusiasm to work, as opposed to just showing up.
We can help you
to solve these problems and increase emotional intelligence - in your organisation, your
team, or yourself. The Mind Works will design a programme that?s right for you.
Emotional intelligence is:
... the capacity
for recognising our own feelings and those of others, for motivating ourselves and for
managing emotions effectively in others and ourselves.
- Daniel
Goleman,
Research has shown that people with high levels of emotional
intelligence have proven to be more successful than those with average levels. The higher
you progress up the corporate ladder, the more difference emotional intelligence makes -
because results at higher levels are determined not solely by technical ability but
increasingly by how well you can unlock the potential of teams.
Research studies carried out by the Hay Group and psychologist Richard
Boyatzis have found:
Experienced partners in a multi-national consulting firm who
were assessed on their levels of emotional intelligence delivered $1.2 million more profit
from their accounts than did other partners - a 139% incremental gain.
Software
developers with high levels of emotional intelligence can develop effective software three
times faster than others.
Sales Consultants with high levels of emotional
intelligence generate twice the revenue of their colleagues.
A national furniture
retailer found that sales people hired based on emotional intelligence had half the drop out
rate during their first year. If you want to develop emotional intelligence in your
organisation to match these results, call us now for an initial
