1 Build Rapport

One of the first steps in excelling at temporary or contract work is to build rapport with your new colleagues. Emotional intelligence plays a key role here; it helps you to read the room, understand the existing team dynamics, and find common ground with coworkers. By showing genuine interest in your peers, listening actively, and sharing relevant experiences, you can quickly become a trusted and integrated member of the team, paving the way for effective collaboration.

When you're a contract worker, it's easy for people to often ignore what you've done or not be first to invest time in getting to know you because they feel you might not stick around long enough. Here are a couple of the things I did that worked well for me: 1. Connect outside of work - whether it's a few employees playing a game of football or having dinner together, ask to be a part of it. It may be uncomfortable, but it's the first step in building rapport. 2. Show people you're curious—there are often levels of hierarchy that people don't expect you to cross. Cross them anyway. Introduce yourself to a manager, ask them questions, and show them your passion for excelling, growing, and being a part of the organization.

Being emotionally intelligent requires understanding the emotional intelligence of others and their values. Build rapport with those that are open and respect those that are not. Know that you were hired to get a job done and collaborate to do it well. That is the best way to build a respected reputation and be valued as a collaborative partner.

2 Adapt Quickly

Adapting quickly to new environments and expectations is essential in temporary roles. Emotional intelligence aids in recognizing and regulating your emotions in response to change. It allows you to maintain a positive attitude, be open to learning, and seek feedback proactively. This adaptability not only helps you perform well in varied settings but also demonstrates your resilience and flexibility to potential employers.

3 Communicate Clearly

Clear communication is vital, especially when time is limited. With high emotional intelligence, you can convey your ideas effectively and understand others' perspectives. This skill ensures that you can participate in discussions, ask clarifying questions, and avoid misunderstandings. It's important to express your needs and boundaries as well, which fosters a healthy work environment and prevents burnout.

4 Manage Stress

Temporary and contract work often come with their own set of stresses, including job insecurity and high expectations. Using emotional intelligence to manage stress involves recognizing your stress triggers and employing strategies such as deep breathing or time management to cope. When you can keep your stress in check, you're able to focus on your work and make a positive impression on your employer.

Understanding your personal needs and distinguishing them from wants can be a major breakthrough. A gig-styled career offers significant benefits like flexibility, lesser supervisor intervention, better work-life balance, independence and freedom to choose etc. However, it also means lack of job security, earning-volatility, networking demands, constant upskilling needs, unstructured glidepath etc. One can't have the cake and eat it too! While flexibility might sound great, considering a gig career means understanding its importance to your nature as a person, acknowledging it and taking action to commit to it. Understand the choices you are making, make alternate arrangements to manage the pitfalls, and try not to overthink!

5 Show Empathy

Empathy is a cornerstone of emotional intelligence that involves understanding and sharing the feelings of others. In temporary and contract work, showing empathy can help you relate to colleagues and clients, creating a supportive atmosphere. It also enables you to navigate conflicts more effectively and contribute to a healthy workplace culture, even if your tenure with the company is brief.

Finally, emotional intelligence can transform you into a leader, regardless of your official title. By demonstrating self-awareness, empathy, and effective communication, you set an example for others. Your ability to manage emotions and connect with coworkers can inspire those around you and may lead to more responsibilities or opportunities for future work. Leading with EI is about influencing positively and leaving a lasting impact .
