How am I doing?
(am I DOING aLL RIGHT?)We lead through our relations with
others. Before you can lead other people successfully, you must know yourself. Build your emotional capital, train your brain, and remember to laugh a little.
Become an emotional capitalist.
Become an emotional capitalist.
Relationships represent a unique strategic resource and the primary source of emotional capital in an organisation.

Just like technical skills that are used to solve problems or create products, emotional
and social skills have a structure and a set of behaviors that when combined can solve
emotional and social problems.
Anyone can become an emotional capitalist.

Our brain has a plastic quality and it continues to adapt and change in response
to continued practice. We can continue to develop new skills even as we age.

A leader’s single most important job is to inspire people with a vision of the future.
To achieve this, you need self-confidence, a belief in your ability to
rise above the pressures of the external environment and the artificial limits
the environment threatens to place on you.

Making the decision to like and believe in yourself and your ability is the surest
way to generate the emotional energy necessary for sustained success.

Laugh. It inspires productivity.
75 percent of our job success is predicted not by intelligence, but by optimism.
You can train your brain to be happier.

Take care of your brain.
Take care of your brain.
It is often said that we only use 10 per cent of our
brain potential. This is not the
whole truth.

Work Research Centre at the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health
Take care of your brain.
It is often said that we only use 10 per cent of our
brain potential. This is not the
whole truth.
The brain has a numerous amount of brain cells and neural networks. We now
know through functional brain imaging that information processing, underlying thinking,
activates neural cells in several different brain areas.

The brain has a numerous amount of brain cells and neural networks. We now
know through functional brain imaging that information processing, underlying thinking,
activates neural cells in several different brain areas.
On the other hand, specific areas of the brain specialize in handling certain types of sensory cues. Due to the specialization of neural cells, the myth of using only 10 percent of our brain’s actual capacity has more to do with the fact that certain activities activate specific neural networks and others are in a more resting state.

Man’s brain has great learning potential.
Man’s brain has great learning potential.
You can activate new neural networks by doing new things. as individuals we
gain different knowledge and skills, and when several active brains come
together, the overall potential increases.

even if the new exercise activates certain regions in the brain, for
example, painting activates the areas that process visual information, the
benefits of learning new things ‘leak’ into the other regions as well.Kiti Müller
Set yourself limits.
Set yourself limits.
The brain likes reasonableness. Do not try to overachieve in learning new things.

If you find it difficult to be quiet and do nothing, it might actually be a sign
of exhaustion. Exhaustion of the brain can also express itself as
anxiety, feeling blue or a desire to be alone and avoid meeting other people.
Simple does it.
Taking care of your brain’s wellbeing is rather simple,
but often hard to put into practice: work out, eat well,
do things that you enjoy and devote time to recovery.

after running a marathon you do not run another marathon the next day. The same logic applies to business. Between busy projects, take some time off.

Test your leader behaviour.
The smaller the disparity between our self-image and reality, the more likely we are to experience inner peace. If there is a gap
between how you perceive yourself and how your employees see you, your
effectiveness as a leader will be diminished. How do other people feel about
your leadership behaviour?
