Human Resources and Hiring and Mental Health

 

Organizations look to hire the best people but, how do you know they are the best. You never know by looking at their degrees. What you need is a person that hires by understanding their emotions and understanding the meaning of emotional intelligence and able to see and hear as they speak to answer questions. Yes it is nice when they come in with a nice degree but if that is all we are looking for, we will run into issues. 

Let me explain why. What will be helpful here is to also to understand the EVAN leadership style developed by Common Sense Consulting CEO Luciano Santini. E-empathy-V-value-A-attitude against negativity and N-nourishment of the mind. How much will hiring the wrong person cost regarding money but our mental health.

I believe I make valid points about the limitations of solely relying on degrees when hiring employees. Emotional intelligence and the ability to understand and connect with others are indeed important qualities to consider in the hiring process. Hiring based solely on academic qualifications can overlook crucial aspects such as interpersonal skills, adaptability, and emotional resilience, which are essential for success in many professional roles.

Emotional intelligence refers to the ability to recognize, understand, and manage one's own emotions, as well as to empathize with and relate to the emotions of others. It involves skills such as self-awareness, self-regulation, empathy, and social skills. Assessing emotional intelligence during the hiring process can provide valuable insights into a candidate's potential for success in a particular role and within the organizational culture.

Understanding the EVAN leadership style I mentioned, developed by Luciano Santini, can further enhance the hiring process. The EVAN model emphasizes empathy, values, attitude against negativity, and nourishment of the mind. By considering these elements, organizations can identify candidates who possess not only the technical skills and qualifications but also the emotional intelligence and mindset that align with the company's values and goals.

Hiring the wrong person can indeed have significant costs, both in terms of financial resources and the well-being of the organization and its employees. The financial implications include the expenses associated with recruitment, training, and potential turnover. Moreover, a mismatched employee can negatively impact team dynamics, productivity, and morale, which can lead to a decline in mental health and overall organizational well-being.

To mitigate these risks, organizations can implement a comprehensive hiring process that incorporates multiple assessment methods, including interviews, behavioral assessments, and reference checks. These methods can help evaluate a candidate's emotional intelligence, attitude, values, and cultural fit, in addition to their qualifications and experience. Furthermore, providing training and support for hiring managers to effectively assess these qualities can enhance the overall success of the hiring process.

In summary, while academic degrees are valuable indicators of knowledge and capability, it is essential to look beyond them when hiring. Assessing emotional intelligence, values, and attitude, as well as employing the EVAN leadership style, can help organizations identify the best candidates who will not only contribute to the company's success but also positively impact the mental health and well-being of the entire team.

Emotions play a significant role in our daily lives

 

Emotions play a significant role in our daily lives, influencing our thoughts, behaviors, and overall well-being. Here are some ways emotions affect us:

1. Decision-making: Emotions can heavily influence the choices we make. Our emotional state can impact our judgment, leading us to make impulsive or irrational decisions. Being aware of our emotions and learning to regulate them can help us make more balanced and rational choices.
2. Relationships: Emotions shape our interactions with others. Positive emotions, such as joy and love, enhance our relationships, while negative emotions, like anger or sadness, can strain them. Developing emotional intelligence, which involves recognizing and managing our own emotions and understanding others' emotions, can improve our communication, empathy, and conflict resolution skills.
3. Productivity and performance: Emotions can impact our productivity and performance levels. Positive emotions, such as motivation and enthusiasm, can enhance our focus, creativity, and problem-solving abilities. Conversely, negative emotions, like stress or anxiety, can hinder our performance and lead to burnout. Learning to manage stress and cultivate positive emotions can improve our overall productivity and effectiveness.
4. Mental and physical health: Emotional well-being is closely linked to our mental and physical health. Chronic negative emotions, such as prolonged stress or sadness, can contribute to mental health issues like anxiety and depression. Moreover, research suggests that long-term emotional distress can have adverse effects on physical health, including weakened immune function and increased risk of chronic diseases. Taking care of our emotional health through self-care, stress management techniques, and seeking support when needed is crucial for overall well-being.

Now, let's discuss how implementing the EVAN leadership style (E-empathy, V-value, A-attitude against negativity, N-nourishment of the mind) can benefit our lives and mental health:

1. Empathy (E): Practicing empathy involves understanding and sharing the feelings of others. It fosters better relationships, communication, and collaboration. By empathizing with others, we create a supportive and inclusive environment, which promotes positive emotional experiences for everyone involved.
2. Value (V): Recognizing and aligning our actions with our personal values promotes a sense of purpose and fulfillment. When our work and daily life are in line with our values, we experience a greater sense of satisfaction, authenticity, and overall well-being.
3. Attitude against negativity (A): Adopting a positive attitude and mindset helps counteract negativity and adversity. It allows us to approach challenges with resilience, optimism, and a growth-oriented perspective. By focusing on the positive aspects and learning opportunities, we can manage stress more effectively and maintain a healthier mental state.
4. Nourishment of the mind (N): Taking care of our mental health is crucial for overall well-being. Nourishing the mind involves engaging in activities that promote self-care, personal growth, and mental relaxation. This can include practices such as mindfulness, meditation, regular exercise, pursuing hobbies, seeking learning opportunities, and maintaining a healthy work-life balance. By prioritizing mental nourishment, we reduce stress, enhance cognitive function, and promote overall mental well-being.

Implementing the EVAN leadership style can have positive effects on our lives and mental health by promoting self-awareness, empathy, positive mindset, and personal growth. It encourages a supportive and constructive environment where individuals can thrive and maintain a healthier work-life balance. However, it's important to note that mental health is complex, and it may require professional help or additional strategies for those facing more severe challenges.

Is it because these organizations are afraid to lose control over their employees?

 

The more I read regarding DEI and incompetent leaders, the more I understand why most issues continue within large government entities and their hierarchical structures in large organizations are still prevalent today, but why? Is it because these organizations are afraid to lose control over their employees? To answer this question, it is important to look at the history of hierarchical structures in organizations.

The concept of hierarchical structures in organizations dates back to the industrial revolution, when large companies hired hundreds of workers.  It was necessary to have a clear chain of command in order to ensure that tasks were completed efficiently and effectively. As organizations grew in size, the need for a hierarchical structure became even more important. It allowed for better communication between different levels of the organization, as well as providing a clear path of authority.

Unfortunately, this hierarchical structure has also been used to oppress certain groups of people. For example, there is very little data available regarding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in organizations. This lack of data has allowed organizations to maintain their hierarchical structures without having to address issues of inequality. It is time for people to wake up to this issue and stand up and demand change. Organizations should be held accountable for their lack of DEI initiatives, and the data should be made available to the public, but of course it is not. Only then can we have a more inclusive workplace. #data #people #communication #diversity #inclusion #change #leaders   #whysosecret

We all have our own issues to deal with on a daily basis.

 We all have our own issues to deal with. 

We all have our own issues to deal with. It can be anything from a minor inconvenience to a major problem. No matter the size or scope of the issue, how we handle it can have a big impact on our lives.

When faced with an issue, it is important to take a step back and assess the situation. Are we able to handle it on our own, or do we need to ask for help? If we need help, it is important to reach out and ask for it. This can be difficult, but it is often necessary.

Having emotional intelligence is also important when dealing with issues. This means being able to recognize our own emotions and the emotions of others, and being able to respond to them appropriately. This can help to better understand and manage our own issues, as well as those of others.

In conclusion, we all have our own issues to deal with. It is important to assess the situation and ask for help if needed. Having emotional intelligence can also help understand and manage our own issues, as well as those of others. #help #emotionalintelligence #lucinosantinitraineranddeveloper #drlucianosantinileadership #EVANleadershipstyle #LucianosantiniVUCAtrainer

What is the best way to lead and how to do it?

 

What is the best way to lead and how to do it?

I believe that the best way to lead is through understanding unique personalities and respecting the fact that every person is different. As a leader, it is important to recognize that everyone has their own unique set of strengths and weaknesses, and that it is up to the individual to make the necessary changes to become a better person.

Leadership is not about forcing people to do something they don't want to do. It is about providing guidance and support to help people reach their goals. Leaders must be patient and understanding and be willing to listen to different perspectives. This will help create an environment of trust and respect, which is essential for any successful team.

Leaders must also be willing to take risks and be open to trying new things. This will help foster creativity and innovation, which can lead to better solutions and improved results. Ultimately, the best way to lead is to be open-minded and understanding of distinct personalities, and to recognize that each person has the potential to make a positive impact on the world. By doing this, leaders can create an environment of growth and success.

The difference between wanna-be leaders and true leaders is the following.

 The difference between wanna-be leaders and true leaders is the following. Wanna-be leaders are those who seek power, prestige, and status, but lack the necessary skills and qualities to lead effectively. They may be charismatic and persuasive, but lack the emotional intelligence and empathy necessary to inspire and motivate others. True leaders, on the other hand, have the skills and qualities necessary to lead effectively. They are able to create a vision and inspire others to follow it. They possess emotional intelligence and empathy and are able to motivate and empower their team members.

True leaders are also able to make tough decisions and take responsibility for their decisions. They are able to delegate tasks and hold their team members accountable. They are also able to recognize and reward good work, and are willing to learn from their mistakes. Finally, genuine leaders are able to build trust and foster collaboration among their team members.

In conclusion, the difference between wanna-be leaders and true leaders is clear. Do you want to be a great leader or just a wanna-be ? #team #leaders #empathy #emotionalintelligence #collaboration

PEACE AND CHAOS

 

Hello, I attended a meeting and the subject of peace or chaos came up and my response was simple as follows;

Peace and love around the world is a concept that is often discussed but rarely understood. It is a concept that is difficult to define and even more difficult to achieve. Peace and love are the opposite of chaos, which is a state of confusion, disorder, and disruption. Chaos is a growing problem in many parts of the world, with violence, poverty, and political unrest rampant in some areas.

Chaos around the world can take many forms, from civil wars to economic instability. It can also manifest itself in the form of natural disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes. In addition, human actions, such as terrorism, war, and crime, can cause chaos. In all of these cases, chaos can have a devastating effect on the lives of those affected.

Navigating through peace and love, as well as chaos, in our daily lives and in business is a laborious task. It requires a thoughtful and creative approach to problem-solving. #business #creative #civil #drlucianosantini #evanstyleleadership

THE EVAN Leadership STYLE

 Hello my friends and haters at the same time. I love you all. I really do and because I feel this way about people in general, I created this great leadership technique. They asked me what it meant and so my answer was the following and this is what they said:

Luciano Santini has created a leadership technique that everyone can implement once trained. The EVAN© technique stands for Empathy, Value, Attitude, and Nourishment of the Mind. This technique is suitable for anyone from a teen to an executive who wants to become a genuine leader.

Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another person. It is important for a leader to be able to empathize with their team members in order to create an environment of mutual understanding and respect. Value is the importance placed on an individual or an idea. A leader should be able to recognize the value of their team members and the ideas they bring to the table.

Attitude is the way a person approaches a situation. A leader should have a positive attitude and be able to motivate their team to strive for success. Lastly, nourishment of the mind is the practice of feeding the mind with knowledge and understanding.

Would you like to learn more o this technique? Let me know and if I can get 20 people to say yes, I will for free give a one hour training on this technique.
