IQ gets all the attention. It’s the raw brain power that wows us. But EQ, or emotional intelligence, might be even more powerful. It provides the finesse to interact with peers, confidence to pitch new investors and charisma to recruit top talent. IQ is something we’re born with. But what about EQ? In this episode, we’ll discuss seven ways to develop your social intelligence, covering strategies like active listening, understanding decision-making and how to be vulnerable without cringey oversharing.
