Emotions are a huge component of our lives. We experience emotions everyday. Joy over a birthday or a promotion. And satisfaction over finishing a project. Or sadness over recent events.
Managing emotions in the workplace can be challenging. Because we don’t have the space and liberties we enjoy in our private lives.
The brain-body connection is what makes emotions so relevant to our well-being. After all, they are blind hints at how well we’re doing. And they significantly affect our health.

When it comes to business success, emotional intelligence beats IQ. Knowing how to manage our feelings is important. And understanding others is crucial for teamwork. In fact, managing emotions is a key leadership skill. Self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy and social skills. And it should not surprise us that empathy is the cornerstone of teamwork.
