… And EI Is the Key

Оглавление

Emotional Intelligence leadership theory, when applied effectively, provides a method to support leaders to rewire our brains, and overcome our deepest self‐limiting mindsets. We cannot teach ourselves out of the seven self‐limiting mindsets discussed earlier in the chapter, but we can build new mindsets and internal habits with a deliberate focus on self‐awareness and self‐management. Once we are aware of our “stuff,” we can build self‐management strategies that will help us to construct new neural pathways. As we begin to shift our internal patterns of thinking and behaving, we draw in social awareness to help us make changes in how we see the world. The self‐work inevitably leads to acquiring a new perspective about others. Productive new leadership behaviors are the inevitable culmination of this type of deep, internal work.

The next chapter will ground you in EI theory and our 5‐Square method for supporting leaders to shift their mindsets and behaviors. The foundational concepts are Goleman's, but we have made them operational in our 5‐Square. Once you understand how the 5‐Square supports personal leadership transformation, you will be ready to begin the personal leadership work of this book.
