Why emotional agility is key in business leadership

Business organisations go through constant change as profits fluctuate, sales increase and decrease, productivity levels change and customer behaviour also shifts. Covid-19 has presented businesses with unprecedented challenges, trying their resilience and ability to adapt.

Leadership capabilities and expertise are needed now more than ever as young business leaders attempt to formulate and execute contingency plans. It is almost impossible to separate leadership from emotional agility because the two help in self –awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy and social skills.
