Leading a team involves several stressful factors. Leading employees to achieve results, keeping everyone motivated, managing conflicts, identifying talents and points that need to be worked out are some demands that every manager needs to address.

In order to achieve good leadership, it is very important to be able to control the emotions while performing the functions of a manager.
A company is made by people, therefore, by emotions. And to perform good management is essential to know how to identify and control the emotions while performing the functions of a manager. It is important to emphasize that the time when the “hard-line” boss was valued within the companies and reigned absolutely does not exist anymore. The authoritarian leadership loses space each day and gives way to a more democratic and development-oriented team of people.

Tips for emotional balance when leading a team
Learn to delegate
Be careful about “centralizing” the tasks, you do not need to get involved in all the details of the projects. An aligned team, with clear communication and clear objectives, has a greater capacity to achieve results. Acknowledge the talent of team members and make adjustments so that each has the space to exercise their talents and abilities.

Meet your collaborators
Dedicate yourself to know who works with you! It plans moments of relaxation between the team, this brings employees closer together and creates a more pleasant, harmonious corporate climate and allows moments of approximation between managers and employees.

Do listen
By listening to employees you develop a relationship of trust. Making room for the team to put their opinions is the key to make them feel valued. Often good ideas can come out of any criticisms and suggestions from employees.

Analyze the context
Understanding the best time; to reprimand, charge, cherish and give in is fundamental.

Give attention to Feedback
Always talk to your employees individually. Always try to say something positive, so the collaborator opens his perception and becomes more accessible. After highlighting the positives; talk about the aspects that need to be improved and always end with an incentive, emphasizing that you rely on the ability of the employee to hone their skills.

Develop your Emotional Intelligence
