I have watched leaders with authority lose the confidence of their teams because they lack emotional intelligence. Connect first and then lead.

My manager went through two rounds of “coaching”. Did not help. Not sure he meant to share, but he did that his emotional intelligence was a 3 out of 100 on the personality test. True text book narcissist. Destroyed anything he touched. Now at least he doesn’t have a team. Got to be ki-ling him with no one to te--orize.
Oof, heard. My new-to-me supervisor is a brick wall. I’ve had such great experience with my managers until this reorg. It’s a miserable hierarchical relationship where it is OBVIOUS I’m being handed the work my manager doesn’t want to do rather than the work my title would suggest.
