Leading With EQ In Challenging Times
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is a crucial part of leadership in the best of times, and is even more important in times of challenge. The events of this past year have underscored the impact that traits such as empathy and resilience can have on the well-being of employees, residents and families. In addition, emotionally-intelligent leaders have been shown to be more effective in hiring, motivating, and retaining staff. In this session, we will explore the principles of Resilient Leadership and how those capabilities are fundamental in leading a staff and a community. Beginning with a brief overview of the key components of Emotional Intelligence, the session will explore how those elements can be incorporated into an effective leadership approach. We will also discuss the impact that the pandemic has had on community life and culture, and the ways in which Resilient Leadership has become fundamental in navigating these challenging times.
