You don't find the best leaders by looking up. You find them by looking ahead. They're laying out a vision, leading by example, engineering culture, and creating success for people. They're leading us forward to a better future. The Lead Forward podcast is about the mindsets, tools, and skills that leaders need to develop high emotional intelligence and lead to a better future. Visit LeadForwardCo.com to learn more about the podcast and how we can help you, your team, and your organization through coaching, consulting, and leadership development.
You make a point. They make a counterpoint. You counter their counterpoint with your original point. They recycle their counterpoint. You both think the other person isn't listening because if the other truly understood you, they would agree with you because you're obviously right.
Many of our conflicts turn circular because we get confused about whether we misunderstand one another or whether we understand each other perfectly and just disagree. Sometimes leadership means being the one to slow down and figure out what's happening, real time, so you can figure out the best thing to do next.

Differentiation
One of the most important EQ skills for leaders (or for people in general) is differentiation. Differentiation is about learning how to tell the difference between your own emotions, identities, and experiences and those of others so we can stay connected without becoming unproductively enmeshed in other people's stuff. There are a thousand ways it shows up at work, including micromanaging, empathy, and feedback.
