Emotional Intelligence and self reflection (Sunday, July 25, 2010 / 8:31 AM)
In the current society, by having the basic qualification or the necessary skills will not lead u to success instead having high EQ will be a different story. Nowadays, most companies are seeking for workers who are all-rounded. They must be able to work well with their colleagues and at the same time produce quality work, and last but not least, a outstanding character/personality. It will be taxing on the company to replace managers who cannot work well with their subordinates and they still have to mend the broken relationship. On the other hand, older workers possess valuable experience which is beneficial to the organization.
Regardless of executive level positions or a normal clerk, job applicants should posses the minimum level of EQ.
After doing weeks and weeks of blog entries, the discussions has deepen my thoughts and widen my views. I learnt to think from other views rather than my usual “one-way” thinking. Also, reading on these articles allows me to know more on what is happening and get to know different types of views from different countries.
I hardly touch newspaper last time. After a few weeks of blog entries, I realized that by reading news and absorbing the knowledge from there is valuable to me. Due to the lack of exposure, my thinking is not mature enough to give opinions which are constructive.
Even though there is no more blog entries, I will still continue the habit of reading newspaper to widen my thoughts.
