What are the best ways to boost your EQ?

In the previous episode of Pain Points we unpicked the positives of emotional intelligence, or EQ, particularly for leaders.

This time, how do you start increasing your EQ, and what are the best ways to put it to use? How do you move from theory to practice?

Author and leadership coach Sarah Harvey is back to share her experiences and offer insights and advice. She's worked with managers and leaders at all levels of business, and knows how to use EQ to increase their effectiveness, and to improve the work and wellbeing of their teams.
