Following on from the podcast interview that I did with Alex on how you want emotion in business and how important it is to understand how they work, to be able to turn them from negative to positive, it got me thinking about the word.
E...Motion, the word itself shows you the importance - if you can understand your own and those of others it creates an energy - the E part, it creates a passion within your team to move towards the vision. Motion is movement, it illustrates the need to consistently evolve and to keep heading towards your goals. Any sports player or manager needs to feel positive to be effective, to be successful and that is why I believe that managing your own emotion and recognition of those around you brings E(nergy) which creates MOTION which is critical to your success.
So always ask people in meetings or in the corridors - "What are you thinking, what are you feeling?"
