As an organizational coach I see it often - HR or L&D reaching out for assistance with a member of the team who is struggling to fit in or work with others. They are exceptional at their job, but there is "something" holding them back. This “something” can be difficult to describe, but usually comes down to the human factors at work, or their emotional intelligence (EI) - in comparison to others in the same environment. EI skills and behaviours are as important as your intellect, experience and background in determining success at work and in life. Measuring emotional intelligence should therefore be added to hiring processes, not to replace other strategies but to strengthen existing processes. Discover how to incorporate EI into your candidate acquisition processes.

The "Force" within you

When you rethink your challenges you reveal your potential. This is one of the principles by which I have learned, over time, to lead my life. It also inspired one of the primary values driving the Revo brand: Empowerment; and why I, personally, find coaching so meaningful. In this blog I shared my thoughts on coaching and mentoring as part of a recent talk I gave as part of the Toastmasters Effective Coaching Pathway - Level 4: Improvements Through Positive Coaching. I am a member of the Kloof Toastmasters Business Club, Durban South Africa.
