In this episode of What's Your Next Move, we talk with Harvey Deutschendorf, author of "The Other Kind Of Smart" about emotional intelligence, how we find it and what it can do for us. The most successful relationships are those where we engage in emotional intelligence in how we pay attention to the other person, listening closely to what they're saying without words and refraining from reacting in moments when we're triggered. To exercise emotional intelligence is to move from a place of reaction to one where we are being deliberate and proactive about how we interact with one another with the goal being to produce the best possible relationship.
