In today's episode of the Everyday EQ podcast, I'm teaching you the final competency in emotional intelligence, relationship management. Relationship management is about using your awareness of your emotions and the emotions of others to have successful interactions. It's one of my favorite components of EQ because it's the culmination of everything you've learned from the other competencies (Self-Awareness, Self-Regulation/Internal Validation, and Empathy/Social Awareness). Basically, relationship management is where you get to flex your EQ muscle and put your skills to work. So here are 5 tips to help you do just that, and master your relationship management.
