• Description:
  A leader's ability to communicate, act on behalf of the people or organization that one serves, adapt to changes in the environment, mentor and develop others, and problem-solve are determinant factors in productive leadership. Effective leadership requires self-awareness, including understanding one's strengths, challenges, behavioral tendencies, and emotional reactions. Effective leadership requires the ability to regulate one's own emotions and responses to emotional challenges. Leading effectively requires managing others' emotions, including supporting others' needs, managing interpersonal conflict, and displaying empathy. Enacting emotional intelligence, which relies on high-quality communication and establishing/maintaining boundaries, can improve leadership. [Description provided by NIOSH]
