Leveraging core EQ skills like self-awareness, social awareness, openness, and desire to reach common goals, emotionally intelligent leaders are able to control the emotional shockwaves that negotiations often cause.

The headlining emotion and focus of EP08 is on the use of empathy to drive compromise when negotiating. The episode will define the true essence of empathy, and explain the concept of ‘tactical’ empathy, and how to employ this technique to gain an advantage in your next negotiation.
