What do you think is one of the most important predictors to your success? 

Your degree? Items listed on a resume? The ability to calculate the slope to some imaginative line? 

OR how about none of the above? 

How about a topic that’s rarely, if at all, found in the classroom?

That topic? Emotional intelligence. 

In today’s episode of The Sage and the Outlaw, we’re here with special guest, Laura Essenberg, who, at just 26 years old, has been involved in just about every stage a company goes through. Startups, scaling and mature companies, private organizations, and nonprofits – you name it. 

From the corporate world here in Hawaii and now in the pursuit of law, Laura is here to talk about the judge and jury in a courtroom that not many people realize exists. 

The laws, regulations, and debate that's constantly taking place inside of YOUR head. 

The invisible courtroom called...your brain. 

So, go ahead. Have a seat.

Gather the evidence covering Emotional Intelligence 101, including: 

• Understanding the various stages of self-awareness
• Determining the difference between EQ and IQ
• Learning how to self-analyze
• Tracing back to where your emotions come from
• Empathizing with others to achieve your goals AND their goals
• Seeing the “bigger picture” of EQ through “The EQ Model”

And most of all? 

Discovering the verdict of a lifetime, so you can pass judgement to the number one suspect that’s truly hindering your current success.

Ready? Good. 

Press play and let the trial begin.
