The Human Energy Crisis at Work

Gallup and other surveys are showing employee disengagement at record highs. The human energy crisis is at its root. This energy crisis isn’t due to staff skipping breakfast and coffee in the morning; it’s the result of stunningly low emotional intelligence (or EQ) with American bosses.

We can’t answer it by becoming more like Vulcans; the lack of emphasis on emotional intelligence is causing strained relationships, reduced collaboration, toxic work atmospheres, disengagement, and mental health issues. Fortunately, Joshua Freedman of Six Seconds has solutions. In this episode, he helps you discover how prioritizing emotional intelligence can bring about a transformative shift in your organization’s success…and its profitability.

Joshua is the author of books, articles, case studies, and psychometric assessments related to emotional intelligence (EQ). He’s a Master Certified Coach (ICF) and the CEO and cofounder of Six Seconds, the global community for EQ. Six Seconds is the world’s first & largest network of emotional intelligence practitioners and researchers with 25 offices globally. As a consultant, facilitator, or coach, Joshua's clients include FedEx, Intel, Etihad Airways, Amazon, Microsoft, the UN, and all branches of the US armed services. Joshua co-developed Six Seconds’ EQ Certification Training which he has delivered on five continents as master-trainer to thousands of professionals seeking practical tools for learning and teaching emotional intelligence.
