How are we doing? Send us a message and let us know what content had impact, and what content may have missed the mark, and why.I’d like to begin this episode by acknowledging the land that I am learning and living on is the traditional unceded, un-surrendered territory of the Algonquin Anishnaabeg People. Emotional intelligence is a popular topic, and that’s because leaders are beginning to understand that we can make leadership decisions without knowing how we will emotionally react to our personal and professional decisions, thereby impacting ourselves, our teams, and our organizations. But, how can we be emotionally intelligent? Trench Leadership has explored this question in the past, but it’s such a broad and diverse topic that in this episode, I’ve decided to try and break up the topic into smaller, bite-size pieces.   In this episode, you’ll hear from Ashley Valliére, a body specialist and mentor, who will talk about the connection between our physiological and psychological responses. Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front is humbled to have been named #7 in the Top 20 for Best Canadian Leadership-themed podcasts for 2023. Ashley’s Episode Links:1.
