In today’s modern age, being likable as a boss is paramount to success.
It doesn’t have to be a popularity contest.
You also do not have to be best friends with your associates.
Being likable as a boss simply means you care about the success of your team.
You recognize that success for one person may not be the same for the next.
You are approachable and able to delegate out tasks appropriately.
If you would like to learn more about how you can increase your likeability as a boss; check out my course.→ https://ontrackleadership.net/p/how-to-become-a-more-likeable-boss

When you look up what it means to be a great leader, you will find nearly a billion results.
Look up leadership qualities and you will find an assortment of answers related to goals, integrity, support, communication, and recognition.
When working with my executive leadership clients I like to examine their approach to leadership and their practice of leadership.
To do this I have all of my clients complete an assessment.
What makes a successful leader?
Honesty, character, Intelligence, and Job Competency play a role.
However, if you are going to truly shine as an effective leader you must enlist all 8 approaches of leadership.
> Pioneering
> Energizing
> Affirming
> Inclusive
> Humble
> Deliberate
> Resolute
> Commanding
Once we recognize where we are in our approaches to leadership, it makes it much easier to develop new practices and provide better leadership to our team.

How do emotional intelligence and agility show up in the workplace?
Meet Alicia-
8:45 am
Alicia stops by the marketing team on her way to get coffee. She chats with several folks about their projects, shares a laugh, and invites one to lunch to pick her brain, bolstering several relationships.
10:00 am
One of her teammates is discouraged as he’s preparing an acquisition proposal. She takes him aside, listens intently to the factors he’s weighing, paraphrases his concerns, validates his thought process, and raises questions for him to consider. He feels better and digs in again.
2:00 pm
Her least favorite colleague stops by to ask for a big batch of data while Alicia’s immersed in writing an urgent report. “I’ll wait,” the colleague says. Alicia resists the urge to roll her eyes, smiles, and promises to deliver the numbers the next morning. Her cubicle neighbor admires her composure.
3:00 pm
A client calls, full of enthusiasm for a new idea he wants incorporated into the plan Alicia is creating. Alicia listens and acknowledges his passion but then gently points out the ways the new idea would delay the plan. “Okay,” the client concedes with a laugh. “Thanks for protecting me from myself.”
3:30 pm
Alicia presents a new, more efficient process to her immediate team. As she feared, they don’t want to change how they do things. She reminds them of the problems caused by the current process, making a convincing case for change. Reluctantly, they admit she’s right.
These are just a few examples of how the combination of emotional intelligence and agility can be used for optimum success within the workplace.
Can you relate to any of these experiences?

46% of managers said that they spend significantly more time on interpersonal issues where higher EQ would be helpful than on either the quality or quantity of work from their employees.
If you are looking to up your skills at work, increasing your EQ could be your ticket to higher pay, and increased leadership.
No one is 100% perfect in every interpersonal interaction, but understanding where you are and where you struggle most can have a significant impact on your performance.
EQ is your emotional intelligence, the Everything DiSC® assessment examines your behavior and determines your greatest mindset strengths based on 8 different mindset types:
Dynamic
Outgoing
Empathizing
Receptive
Composed
Objective
Resolute
Self-Assured
