C-Suite Leaders and Emotional Intelligence: The Interviews. No. 1 Mel Forbes, CEO Guidant Group

Amanda Wildman, Director, Emotionally-i-Fit conducts monthly interviews on the theme of Emotionally Intelligent Leaders. First up is Mel Forbes, CEO Guidant Group

Emotional Intelligence is a combination of attitudes and behaviours that distinguish outstanding performance from average performance. It provides a framework for understanding how you manage yourself to be personally and interpersonally effective.  Your emotions are influenced by your attitudes.  In particular, your attitude towards yourself and your attitude towards other people.  There are 16 dimensions relating to Emotional Intelligence that great leaders will display.  In these interviews, we are going to explore how successful leaders demonstrate these EI behaviours in their work.

Authentic Leadership

The day I chose authenticity.

Being an authentic leader is about knowing who you are, your principles and values.  By inviting the trust of others by being known and through honest relationships, authentic leaders can improve long-term individual and business performance.

This is how I made my own decision to choose authenticity in my leadership and working practices.
