Can a leopard change its spots? EI expert Cary Cherniss shares his view.

Can a leopard change its spots? The bad behaviour of leaders has come into the spotlight over the last year and many commentators have called out a clear deficit of Emotional Intelligence in positions of power. From the US, where the world became obsessed with Former US President, Donald Trump to Australia, where a Federal Minister who was bullying women online was ordered to take empathy training. Whether you are an aspiring leader who behaves like John McEnroe in the office or a HR leader trying to tame the CEO, this podcast will help you understand: How an established leader with deeply entrenched negative behaviours can genuinely develop emotional intelligence. This episode features Cary Cherniss, co-chair of the Consortium for Research on Emotional Intelligence in Organizations and author of ‘Leading with Feeling’: nine strategies of emotionally intelligent leaderships. Together with EI at Work co-hosts Marie El Daghl and Genos CEO, Dr Ben Palmer, they discuss: The factors that would determine whether an established leader / manager with entrenched negative behaviours can improve through EI development. The time it would it take for someone like this to truly gain and then effectively exercise EI. The likelihood a team would accept the change in their leader or manager, or be cynical of it. When to develop EI in a leader, or accept it’s just not possible. The top three most common obstacles or challenges leaders might face the first time they use newly found Emotionally Intelligent strategies. The evidence that supports a link between EI and leadership effectiveness and more. Interested in Emotional Intelligence?

Campbell McGlynn, Executive GM People & Culture, at leading aged care provider IRT Group reveals the immense emotional labour of the aged care industry, and how in just 6 months emotional intelligence has already made a mark. The Aged Care sector is responsible for the care of over 1.3 million Australians. However, there has been growing concern and widespread reporting on inadequate quality of care and safety. In 2018, the Australian Government established the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety. Its final report has revealed harrowing information on the dire state of the sector. It has confirmed issues such as poor workplace conditions, understaffing and abuse, making it clearer than ever that the industry is failing its vulnerable customers and workforce.
