Leaders have got a lot of myths attached to them. Leadership in itself is redefined every then and now. There have been a lot of debates on different leadership styles and a lot of characteristics that the leader should or should not posses. There is however, an important and hidden ingredient missing in a leader's personality. This particular component has neither been discussed nor talked about significantly. Let's see what it is and how much significant it is in determining the overall personality of a leader. This particular characteristic is known as Emotional Intelligence. Emotional Intelligence in simple words means the ability to manipulate one's emotions during the key role of managing leadership roles. Problems come in business in droves and solving each needs human involvement. However human involvement does also have to have the involvement of emotions. Some of the management gurus argue that Emotional Intelligence is much more important then your old styled traditional leadership skills.

Iron fist control of affairs was the popular slogan of the past leaders. However, new era leaders don't advocate this ...
... approach for a number of reasons. Firstly, emotional bosses result in higher turn over for the business. Second most important thing is the inability of the bosses to get closer to their subordinates. This not only hinders the subordinates to clearly communicate with the upper bosses, there is another serious implication. The implication is that subordinates listen to bossy bosses with a pinch of salt and a prejudice in mind. They might be claming to obey their bosses, but their commitment from inside is dubious at the best. In past, this kind of leadership has not only resulted in major losses for the organizations, but has also camouflaged the real problems lying in between the hierarchical levels. The management thinks everything is fine and there is no need to worry about anything. This also results into unsatisfied customers, and seriously limits the productivity of the organization.

These are some of the major problems causing disruption for the organizations due to lack of Emotional Intelligence by the top ups. If an organization has realized this problem and can successfully relate that to its own condition, then realization needs serious think over. Immediately after realization, each top executive should be given a paper and asked to write on it his views. Then a collaborative brainstorming session should be conducted. Issues should be discussed in a more generalized approach. Individual victimization should be avoided and each executive should be asked to play his her role in the process. Continuous monitoring should assist the realization and self actualization process. Individual psychiatrist or coach should be hired to approach each executive individually and guide them on brighter side of the affairs. This would not only sort out a lot of problems, and promote open communication but will also lead to a more interactive and democratic leadership for the people.
