The Essence of Emotional Intelligence

We often measure leadership by strategy and results, but true leadership is found in the quiet moments of self-control. If your manager is having a bad day but chooses not to make everyone feel it too, they aren’t just a manager—they are a leader.

A leader acts as a "buffer" between external pressure and the team's internal environment. While a manager might project their stress, a leader processes it internally to maintain collective focus.

This is the essence of emotional intelligence. It’s the ability to absorb pressure without passing it down as stress. By choosing not to "leak" frustration onto their team, leaders create a psychological safety net. They protect the culture, ensuring that one person’s bad morning doesn’t become an entire team’s toxic afternoon.
