Simon Sinek and Brene Brown, is a great place to start. Coaching middle school kids also helped me.

I’d look around and pay close attention to people you feel are really good at these things and try to model in a way that works for you.

For EQ, I would suggest meditation and taking time to self-reflect in addition to the other suggestions.

I’ve worked for 30 years & found it’s important to show respect and empathy to people on all levels- plant and corporate, warehouses & receiving docks. If you show empathy for the challenges and struggles of everyone from the bottom up, you’ll learn a lot about how things work. Acknowledge people, learn to make small talk, and follow up on promises so they know you’re sincere. I also created a lot of documentation, procedures, ran agendas and summaries which also helped with communication but I naturally enjoy it. I also think there’s a lot of free resources on YouTube (incl Brene Brown) and on LinkedIn.

I work in field sales as an IC. My aspirational career path is to end up in people leadership.

Or should I continue down the field path and wait until those field management slots open up?
