Emotional intelligence is the foundation of sound decision making, which is at the core of consistently high performance. It is not about being soft, emotional and nice, infact it is the ability to sense, understand and effectively apply the power and acumen of emotions to facilitate high levels of collaboration and productivity.

So, do not try to take up any such task which you cannot accomplish. It is always better to leave the things which you cannot do rather than taking it and highlighting your imperfection.

Emotions are involved in every human interaction and are a powerful factor in the equation when individuals, teams, managers and organizations as a whole work together. Employees’ EQ has everything to do with the quality of decisions they make and on the results a business achieves. With knowledge
