Employers and managers must be mindful of leading their employees by managing emotions. If employees' emotions are positive in the workplace, employees will be more productive in their positions. Using emotional intelligence when planning leadership and recognition strategies is crucial to maximizing productivity in your organization. Here are 5 tips to lead with emotional intelligence.

  1. Care About People: Showing employees you care is crucial in creating a happy, positive, work environment. Taking the time to get to know your employees and appreciate them is crucial to leading them effectively. The more you know your employees the better you can work with them and optimize their skills and success.
  2. Embrace differences: Diversity of skills, backgrounds, strengths, and weaknesses create an incredible opportunity to play to all employees strengths and use the diversity to create an environment of constant learning. As employees learn from each other camaraderie is built and productivity is gained from the strengthened working relationships.
  3. Help Employees Experience Significance: When an employee has a profound impact on a project, team, or organization recognize their achievement. Going beyond standard responsibilities deserves recognition and reward. Using rewards that can be personalized such as gift cards allow employers flexibility and give employees what they really want. Rewards that can be personalized allow employers to give a Children's Place gift card to a new parent or a gift card to The Limited for the fashion conscious employee. Recognizing hard work is essential to boosting job satisfaction and productivity.
  4. Be Accountable: Applying the same level of accountability to yourself and your employees is crucial in creating a fair atmosphere and a happy workplace. Being responsible for your job and your team will instill confidence and trust in your employees.
  5. Be Mindful of Employee Needs: Help employees reach their full potential. Being aware of employees' professional goals and needs is crucial to individual success, as well as organizational success.
