You’ve come to a decision and you’re sure you’ve made the right choice. That employee who always delivers her results on time, above expectations, with a fresh perspective – you’re going to make her team manager because you know she will be a “leader.” A month goes by and she’s struggling.

The threshold competencies for a successful leader are IQ, technical skills, and emotional intelligence (EI). While most of us would think that IQ and technical skills are most important, in reality EI is twice as important as a predictor of leadership success. In her Achievers Customer Experience 2015 (ACE) session, Bobi Seredich, co-founder of Southwest Institute for Emotional Intelligence, explains how EI is not only important for leaders, but also organizations as a whole.
