Having spent several years researching positive work relationships and high-performing groups, John Paul Stephens talks about a key ingredient in the "secret sauce" of emotional intelligence: the emotional carrying capacity of our work relationships. From individuals to project teams to CEOs and their Board Chairs, his research has found that this emotional carrying capacity, or the ability to express more emotion and different types of emotion constructively in a relationship, is positively linked to individual resilience, knowledge creation, and even firm capabilities. Whether as a leader or team member, developing such skills will be key as we manage the increasingly turbulent emotional landscape of today's organizations.
