Emotional Intelligence Of Giving

We make a living by what we get

We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give. - Winston Churchill.

What are you giving? Are you interested in new ways to give? Here are some possibilities.

Give to your favorite non-profit. Can you serve food at a homeless shelter? Or serve on their Board of Directors? Or give money?

One novel idea for giving money is to give a non-profits Executive Director a scholarship to attend my Virtual-Workshop, Emotional Intelligence for Resilient Leaders and Professionals. They need this. You know they need it. Just look at their leadership challenges and scarcity of resources. They dont get much leadership development training because it is not much in their budget nor do foundations give for that.

So you could provide the necessary scholarship to allow an Executive Director to attend my leadership training via weekly telephone conference calls and an extensive Participant Workbook. This is powerful learning that sticks because it is spread out giving them time to practice in between sessions. I have been training leaders for over 30 years. I am well qualified with a Harvard MBA, Yale, M.Div., leadership experience in both corporate and non-profit environments, and much experience as a training facilitator.

Now how about ways to be giving right in your own job? If you are a leader, your emotional intelligence resonates for better or worse throughout your group. How can you make your emotional intelligence shine as a beacon of hope and inspiration? This may take some work. Consider getting help from an Executive Coach like me.

In many interactions, you can concentrate on being really present for the other person, in a caring way. They will experience this as a moment when they felt validated, affirmed. This is a way of giving that we have many opportunities for.

The trick is to take the time to be centered and see this as a special opportunity. We have to release the sense of hurry and our fear of losing too much time. Do you want to do this more often? Do you have the skill? The emotional intelligence? If not, you can learn it.

Keep on a giving,
