Your policies won’t save you. Your systems won’t save you. The leadership skill that makes—or breaks—your childcare program is emotional intelligence.

In this episode of the Childcare Director’s Chair Podcast, Erica Saccoccio breaks down why EQ is the multiplier that makes every other leadership skill work. Discover how self-awareness, empathy, and relationship management can transform your staff culture, boost parent trust, and keep enrollment strong. Plus, Erica shares practical strategies you can start using today—and a challenge that will change the way you lead this week.

Ready to grow into the leader your team and families need? Hit play, and let’s talk about it.
