I scored pretty well in all the areas on the Emotional Intelligence assessment test. But the area of regulating my emotions could use a little work. To be completely honest I am kind of a people pleaser and I would much rather not say something than to say something and have to deal with confrontation. I don’t like tension or making people upset so I sacrifice my own happiness a lot of the time just to make someone else happy. This leads to bottled up emotions. Having this area under control is very important as a manager because I know there will be times as a leader that there will be people that will not always be happy with me because having to be a leader. As a leader you can not lead off of emotions or feelings but by what is morally and lawfully right and what policy says. But even outside of management, having your emotions regulated is very important to maintaining your happiness.
I believe the first step to me fixing this area is working on communication. I need to get more confident in expressing what I am thinking and feeling. As long as I do this in a respectful manner, that is what is important. Another thing is I have to remind myself is that I can not control how the other person responds. If I have done nothing wrong and they choose to be mad I have to let that go and not harbor those feelings. I can not please everyone, and that is just a fact I to face. Although I didn’t score low in this area it was lower than my other areas on this assessment. So I do think it needs some attention.
