The World Economic Forum lists Emotional Intelligence as one of the Top 10 skills for 2020+ and statistics from Harvard, Stanford, and Carnegie Foundation show we are only paying attention to our soft skills 10% of the time.

The better we are able to flow through the detect, decipher, comprehend, facilitate and regulate activities of our everyday interactions. EI matters, so harness the emotional chaos and lead yourself and your team with mind and heart.
