Embracing Emotional Intelligence in Business
– Focus on genuine connections with clients and colleagues rather than merely conducting transactions.
– Manage business in a way that aligns with your personal values, even if it means losing a client.
– Regularly evaluate your motivations and actions to ensure they align with your personal and professional goals.
– Get comfortable having difficult conversations and recognizing the emotions tied to your work.
Getting Clear on What Matters
Bob believes instead of striving for perfection, it’s better to reflect on what brings you joy and revitalizes your energy, allowing others to see the human in you.
“I think it’s so important to really know what our mission is, what our purpose is in the business and in life in general, because they’re not separate. I incorporate my personal life into my staff, my employees, my clients, the professionals that I work with. I don’t try to keep all that stuff separate. This is me. This is how I’m going to show up, and I’m going to show up in all aspects of my life.” – Bob Wheeler
