Emotional Intelligence
the capacity to be aware of, control, and express one's
emotions, and to handle interpersonal relationships judiciously
and empathetically.
Key Points
• LEIPs hide in plain sight behind “safe-words”
• LEIPs need to be moved to the core of the engagement conversation
• Managing LEIPs is largely hindered by corporate and personal taboos
• We tend to casually classify people as LEIPs and disengage them vs.
truly assessing the facts

Uncomfortable Truths
• Its easier for us to use these euphemisms / safe-words than engage
the undesirable behavior
• LEIPs create psychological tension / unease within those around them
• The words we use in our vocabulary regulate our ability to address
our culture
Engagement
“People leave people”
Source: www.dalecarnegie.com
Response To LEIPs
• I am demotivated
• I resent that they are
allowed to continue their
bad behavior, that
negatively affects the team
• I wonder when
management will act;
wonder when management
will listen to what people
are saying.
Disengage

Engage
26%
Neutral

Co-Worker Response To LEIPs
Uncomfortable Truths
• Teams cant successfully “self-organize” themselves out of the pain
LEIPs cause
• Working with LEIPs challenges our own Emotional Intelligence
• Managers typically rationalize their disengagement
• LEIPs have genius-level self-preservation skills
Taboos
Performance is #1
• They are so innovative
• They are the only person who can do that
• They are critical for blah blah blah
• We say “how” we achieve results is as important as what results we
achieve, but…
• They did that important thing so long ago
• They are always the hero
If You Cant Develop Them, You Fail
Idiosyncrasies LEIPsWayward Souls
Develop yourself
Change a life
Hold to Account & Exit
Frequency
Effort
Uncomfortable Truths
• Empathy / engagement fatigue is real
• Fatigue plays a role in how well we assess and manage the facts
• LEIPs are typically isolated to be a specific manager’s problem, when
they are really a company problem

Notas do Editor

  1. Agile Teams Value: trust | openness | merit-based discourse Millennial Workforce Value: Transparency | Meaning | Harmony | Autonomy | Trust Hierarchical command and control is anathema
  2. This is the raw emotion Most people aren’t going to use these words publically, so we create safe words to proxy for what we really feel
  3. So what are the safe words?
  4. Borderline (omitted) Narcissistic Histrionic Antisocial What are the distinctions between personality disorders and personality traits Omni present Repeated negative impact to functionality There is nothing more real than being in the deep end of the emotional / personality pool. We get into an extraordinarily complex and uncomfortable situation here because its not reasonable to think that every manager has the ability / training to manage LEIPs We might have empathy fatigue
  5. Euphemisms are signals of social discomfort Getting angry is a natural response, but its not a productive one If I only ever call people bull dogs or divas, then I am never addressing the issue of bad culture
  6. SOURCE: http://www.dalecarnegie.com/employee-engagement/engaged-employees-infographic/ What is the relationship between the direct manager / senior leadership team and LEIPs You promote what you permit QUESTION: if a Bulldog and a Rockstar get the same treatment, what should I infer? REAL SAFE CARE
  7. 2/3 take disengaging actions Only ¼
  8. Peer coaching and influence requires exceptionally high emotional intelligence on each side Some responses are downright full or anger and pain. LEIPs have a unique way of bring people down into the mire with them What genius do you think they have? Manipulation Strategic alliances Controlling the narrative Rationalizations This is too hard This isn’t my problem Why do I have to deal with this But they are such a top performer Other people don’t have a problem Zombies are an appropriate analogy: they are slow, insidious, we fear them, they are a looming threat
  9. Assess and identify Commit to your approach (develop or depart) Execute behavioral coaching
