Expressing our emotions at work is not always easy, but what if paying more attention to our behaviours and emotional needs made us better leaders? Leaders who could hire according to their emotional inventory, operate in a more self aware state and create emotionally in tuned and strong teams that support business growth.

Daisy Wright, who supports folks as they transition in their careers and guides them as they enter leadership roles, discusses how emotions show up at work for first time leaders – providing examples we can all learn from. Carolyn Stern, an emotional intelligence instructor and expert, draws on Daisy’s experience to illustrate principles and tactics that will encourage you to feel what you feel, deeply, so you can be an emotionally strong leader.

Guests:

Daisy Wright is the Founder and Chief Encouragement Officer of The Wright Career Solution and an award-winning executive career coach.

Carolyn Stern is the author of The Emotionally Strong Leader and is the President and CEO of EI Experience, an executive leadership development, and emotional intelligence training firm.
