This week, we will review what emotional intelligence is and why we should develop it. If an individual must possess certain technical skills to do a job, and everyone must have the same technical skills in order to do it, the true differentiators in the workplace become the softer skills. The understanding and practice of emotional intelligence is the key to all of the rest.

Emotional intelligence requires a focus on mental and emotional health. We also have a video on meditation and some interesting commentary on how we can use art and music for inspiration on the global stage.
