Now more than ever, organizations need to be agile to adapt to the rapid pace of change. They need self-directed team members who are engaged and take initiative. And this requires flexible, trusted, emotionally intelligent leaders. Agile leaders create agile workplaces.
Flexibility is a cornerstone of emotional intelligence. Flexible leaders are open-minded and adaptable. They see the needs of others as at least as important as their own and are willing to change their minds when presented with new information. This approach increases trust.
