Your emotional intelligence, or EQ, determines how you interact with others. It can affect the kind of workplace relationships you have. People with a higher EQ usually possess many of the qualities companies desire from their employees, especially in leadership roles:

• Clear communicator
• Team player
• Gives clear, constructive feedback
• Keeps cool under pressure
• People skills
• Thinking outside the box

To be an effective leader, emotional intelligence is key. The good news is you can develop the skills you need through coaching.
