Do you want to ask for a raise or get a promotion? Need some advice?

It's that time of year. 

If you work for someone else, you might be planning to ask for a raise, or put your hat in the ring for a promotion. 

If you're an entrepreneur, you may want to increase your fees in 2018 or add a higher priced program. 

What do we do when we have a big "ask?"

Our emotional intelligence can be our teacher and help us find the right time, place and language for any big "ask."

Last week I blogged about emotional intelligence. Remember, your EQ accounts for 58% of performance, so you don't want to neglect using your EQ when raising prices, asking for a raise or a promotion. 

Here are some practical tips on how to leverage your EQ.

There are four components. I’ll break it down for you in today’s video.

I also offer programs on Emotional Intelligence if you want to check those out. They are perfect for small or large groups and I love doing them! 

Few things are more important in your professional and personal growth than understanding and improving your emotional intelligence. Join me as we explore EQ today.
