If search and staffing skills and techniques are the tools of our industry, the engine that runs them is emotional intelligence or EQ. The term EQ has been defined as “the ability to monitor one’s own and other people’s emotions, to discriminate between different emotions, and label them appropriately, and to use emotional information to guide thinking and behavior.” This session is designed to start to equip you with tools and trust-based behaviors to drive greater awareness of yourself and of others, including candidates, clients, and your own teammates.
Why is this so essential? 92% of all professional and personal failures are EQ-based. Everyone has their own unique approach and style, but there will be times when we need to adjust that style to suit the client, the candidate, and even individual team members. This is not an easy task.
Learning objectives:
- Develop great self-awareness and challenge your paradigms
- Discover blind spots in judgement and how to better recognize them
- Start the process of building trust-based behaviors
- Better manage your priorities vs. others’ priorities
- Explore why your overextended behaviors limit you
