“People Are Strange” as Jim Morrison once said. In this episode, Jennifer Maxwell and Michael delve into Emotional Intelligence (EQ), which is essentially how to interact with different personality types and be more self-aware of one’s own behaviour. We discuss how Millennials are viewed by other generations in the workforce, and how they can better improve their EQ.

Three ways to Increase EQ:

1) Understand Yourself and Others (by starting with the DISC method of human behaviour)2) Gain Perspective / A Point of Reference: Inquiring about ‘what happened’ vs. ‘the story around what happened’ (What are the stories you’ve been told growing up, and how do those impact how you perceive the world, through friendships, or conflict, or challenges at work?)3) Build Relationships: This takes time. As does knowing how to contribute in a meaningful way (finding true connection, and/or purpose).
