The fact of owning a managerial or political position in a certain business organization or public institution, does not in any way mean having the leader quality, least in those places where the division or formation of antagonistic groups. In these are usually generated toxic relationships, product of incapacity, ignorance, lack of technical knowledge and, above all, of a terrible management of emotions by those who must set the example that, instead of it, encourages disagreements.
Usually these types of people have a ephemeral address that, far from being empathetic, it seems that they fight to be unfriendly.
This happens because these types of individuals never recognize their limitations They don’t realize they are toxic. they never make an effort of self-criticism nor do they have an iota of will to know themselves. On the contrary, one of his personality characteristics is to be narcissists, because they believe they are always right, and they attribute the blame for everything undesirable and negative that happens to them to those around them.
They are people who they are extremely lacking in emotional intelligence, and they never make an examination of their own conduct, so they are not aware of themselves. In such a way that they do not reveal, neither on the surface nor in the background, having competences that prove to have emotional intelligence.
On the contrary, they are people who do not know how to relate to themselves, much less to others, since they even fight with their own image when they see themselves in the mirror. They are unaware of their weaknesses, needs and impulses. And they are not honest with themselves, much less with those who circumstantially surround them in a certain environment that regularly becomes toxic.
In general, they are unbearable people, and, therefore, without emotional intelligence, since they do not know themselves, since they do not know how to evaluate themselves realistically and self-critically. They are naturally prone to failure, don’t know how to ask for help, and therefore easily become frustrated when they could have avoided it and done well.
They also don’t know how to carefully select their words, which are usually hurtful. And they also have impulsive and disrespectful behaviors that, far from being a leader, seem more like hooligans from the worst suburbs. His impulsiveness often works against him. Although, the serious thing about the case is that they do not realize their accumulation of errors.
They are people with little or no motivation and who show no interest in obtaining good results. Much less do they show empathy with their circumstantial co-workers.
We recommend you read:
It is good to remember that empathy is a component of leadership and, if it is lacking, it is obviously an individual who does not have the slightest characteristic of being a leader, because he lives in a cauldron where negative emotions boil and where they produce agenda checks, instead of fostering group unity and harmony.
It is good to remember that empathy plays a major role in talent retention, since leaders have always needed empathy to develop and retain good collaborators. Although, instead, there are highly toxic people who insist on rejecting the talents of a group, because they do not have good management of emotional intelligence, nor of the technical issues of the position. So they are individuals who are worth the same as a zero to the left. Any.
