Emotional intelligence (Day 12) - Coping with “not being liked” by everyone

Leadership position comes with issues especially for women, how can we cope? 

1. Don’t shy away from leadership position (nobody likes female bosses) 

2. Go into the active risk management mode (identify the upside and the downside, then work to reduce risk) 

3. Forget about “us” and work on “me” 

4. Work with teams that bring out the best in you 

5. Be humiliation and failure-averse 

6. Be ready to take tough decisions like breaking relationships that are hurting.

7. Be ready to be excluded from certain activities so develop a thick shell. 

Takeaway: Leadership is an opportunity to help others (especially other women) reach their goals (Sallie Krawcheck)
