Brilliant
intellect and strong technical expertise mean very little if the leader cannot
collaborate with others to leverage that knowledge to move the organization
forward. Research shows that technical expertise is not a core indicator of
success in the highest ranks of an organization. At the top of the hierarchy,
technical expertise becomes negligible while leadership skills become
all-important—especially those rooted in Emotional Intelligence.
Self-awareness, self-control, and empathy: research has shown us that these
skills matter more to success than the qualities we have long believed were the
definitive predictors of success—including personal qualities like
determination, toughness or IQ.
