Apply Emotional Intelligence to Effective

Problem Solving at the Workplace

BACKGROUND

 

Problem solving is the biggest task every employee has to undertake in his/her daily course of work.  While most people attempt to use the logical way to solving problems, almost all would agree that people are the biggest challenge to manage when it comes to getting any problem solved.   Furthermore, many are finding difficulty in managing their stakeholders.

 

Problem solving today takes a combination of intelligence quotient (IQ) and emotional quotient (EQ).  Both needs to work together to more effective manage both the problems and the stakeholders.
