Leading Beyond the Numbers - How accounting for emotions tips the balance at work

Emotions at work: irrational, or invaluable?
For centuries we have divided mind and body, valuing reason over emotion. But new research is fundamentally changing our understanding about how our brains and bodies work. What might be possible when we leverage both our reason AND emotion?
Explore the vital link between emotions and organizational performance. Knowing more about our body and brain and how we are interconnected and interrelated can positively impact people, performance and profit.
Leadership coach and experienced finance director Susan Ní Chríodáin sits at the nexus of business and emotion and reveals how to reintroduce humanity into the workplace, for improved engagement and fulfillment, benefiting both individuals and organizations.

About the author

Susan Ní Chríodáin, founder of consultancy Beyond the Numbers, is an award-winning chartered accountant with a Big 4 background. Through a career that spanned three continents and a range of leadership roles, she learned that success demands bravery, boldness and building strong working relationships; technical skills are only half the story. Learning to take responsibility for her own emotional state accelerated her ability to connect meaningfully with others.
Her MSc in Political Science showed her that the identity and culture of groups is heavily influenced by feelings. Working as a leadership coach and facilitator and undertaking various related courses opened her eyes to how we can all better leverage the power of our emotions.
Driven by the numbers of people who are disengaged at work, she is committed to creating more emotionally aware workplaces. Her popular podcast, Life Beyond the Numbers, is for people who are curious about having a more fulfilling work-life.
