How Emotional Intelligence Helps Manage Change - Chris De Santis
b'
In today\\u2019s episode, I chat with Chris De Santis a Chicago-based organizational behavior consultant, speaker and author, specializing in workplace interventions. Chris recently published his first book, "Why I Find You Irritating: Navigating Generational Friction at Work".\\xa0
Chris has over 35 years of experience in training and development consulting, including stints as the Director of Training and Development for the American Medical Association and as part of the Human Resource Development group for Brunswick Corporation.\\xa0
As we do in every episode, we began with Chris\\u2019 story, though quickly transitioned to the generational differences facing today\\u2019s workplaces. Last I counted, there was 5, and with increasing pressure on traditional organizational models to evolve, there\\u2019s a lot of friction.\\xa0
We spoke about the evolution of professional services workers, how Chris\\u2019 background in the arts informs his work today, and how organizations and their leaders leverage emotional intelligence to manage change
It\\u2019s a unique vantage point, and I really enjoyed our discussion. I hope you do, as well.\\xa0
