We’ll explore why emotional intelligence (EQ) is no longer a “soft skill” — it’s a mission-critical asset for both military and tech leaders. From my time leading cyber teams in the U.S. Navy to shaping innovation in Silicon Valley startups like Truvantis, Pivotal, and Directly, I’ve learned EQ can be the key to retaining talent, managing pressure, and inspiring trust across every domain.
