There are situations where you really need emotional intelligence. I remember some situations when we have people who were very creative in the room and they were not really listened to or respected. Because they were not evolved to prove things. They took more time to put things together. And, I am saying, “ok. If I see this, and I put this together…” And I remember one of the guys who was participating in one meeting, you know, after the meeting when we had a coffee and just debriefed; then he came up with so many interesting ideas! But he was not participating in the same way as others, and people were not really valuing his added value. And by the time I spent with him having coffee, I realized how much worth he could bring to the project. And I could bring these ideas back to the next meeting, saying: “you know, he said that last time, and we should incorporate that; what do you think?” And then people valued this contribution.
