At this stage in your career, you will find that all of your colleagues are as smart and hard working as you.  While these are important characteristics, there must be something else that distinguishes the top performers from everyone else.  A ton of research over the past 20 years has shown that something else is emotional intelligence (EQ).  In fact, emotional intelligence accounts for nearly 90% of what move people up the ladder when IQ and technical skills are roughly similar.  As Daniel Goleman wrote in the Harvard Business Review in 1998, “Without it, a person can have the best training in the world, an incisive, analytical mind, and an endless supply of smart ideas, but he still won’t make a great leader.”  To strengthen your emotional intelligence, you have to know what it is.  EQ is more than personality or charisma.  It is exhibited in adaptability, collegiality, and empathy – and is practiced through listening, remaining calm and resilient in the face of problems, valuing and helping colleagues, and connecting and empathizing with your customers.  Come find out more about why emotionally intelligent people are more successful, and what you can do to build your EQ!
