Here's how you can navigate complex social issues with emotional intelligence.
Navigating complex social issues requires more than just understanding the facts; it demands emotional intelligence (EI), the ability to recognize, understand, and manage your own emotions, as well as empathize with others. Emotional intelligence is crucial in community organizing because it fosters effective communication and builds trust within diverse groups. As you engage with challenging topics, leveraging EI can help you address conflicts sensitively and create an inclusive environment where all voices are heard and respected.
