We’re all thinking about it — so let’s talk about AI. Once again, we’ve found ourselves in the Wild West of a new technology that many worry could put them out of work. We know that as technology evolves, so do trends, tools, demand for goods and services, and jobs. So, it’s true that in 10-15 years, your job as it functions now might not exist —but that doesn’t mean your career won’t.

| 21 Sep 2023 | Return on investment: How being more emotionally intelligent benefits your bottom line | 00:20:36 | |
How do you approach emotional intelligence in your workplace? Is the rest of your team on board with that approach? You won’t have a lot of luck building out an emotional intelligence program with your team if you don’t share a common understanding of how to work on emotional intelligence together and why it matters. If you’ve been trying to incorporate these new ideas within your team and they still don’t seem to get it, the trick may be letting them figure it out for themselves.
