What do you do if your colleagues lack emotional intelligence in the workplace?
Emotional intelligence (EI) is the ability to understand and manage your own and others' emotions, especially in social and professional settings. It can help you communicate effectively, build rapport, resolve conflicts, and cope with stress. However, not everyone has a high level of EI, and you may encounter colleagues who lack empathy, self-awareness, or emotional regulation. How do you deal with them without compromising your own well-being and performance? Here are some tips to help you navigate the challenges of working with low-EI colleagues.
