In this HR in Review episode, we take a look at ways to increase productivity and explore why high emotional intelligence (EQ) is important for effective leadership.
Guest: Lena Thompson
Bill Banham’s guest this time is Lena Thompson, founder and speaker at Lena Thompson International and former System Analyst at Morgan Stanley.

- You often talk about productivity. Can you share some productivity tips or suggestions for ways to think about it?
- You also talk a lot about emotional intelligence. Why is high EQ important for effective leaders?
- How do you think spirituality can be used in the business world? How can we make it practical? For example, what tools can organizations use?
- Is one’s ‘energy’ inherent (are we born with it) or a manifestation of our personality, or is it learned?
