In this continuing series of conversations with confident women leaders, Lee talks to Sandra Thompson, founder of EI Evolution, and the first Goleman Emotional Intelligence Coach in the UK, who joins the show to talk about her career so far, the role of emotional intelligence in business and life, and the best ways in which to get what we want in life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Sometimes you need to leap before you look, or the chance to make a positive impactful change can pass you by.
Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand the emotions within yourself so that you can develop your relationships and better your life.
Historically, consultants have gone into businesses with the aim of trying to improve measures or metrics. They then moved to improve customer satisfaction. Employee engagement came next, followed by leadership behaviour.
If you can focus upon a goal enough, and chase a desire with enough passion, then it is always achievable. If you want it, you can have it.

BEST MOMENTS

'You don't know until you say yes and then figure it out'

'If you want it, you can have it'

'It call comes to down to how you recognise and understand the emotions in you'

'A lot of people think it's a magic wand'
