During the interview, Rosie refers to several posts she has published on LinkedIn;

• Emotional Intelligence – Managing Yourself and Others – Part 1 Millennials
• Emotional Intelligence – Part 2 About using Emotional Intelligence with Gen X
• Emotional Intelligence – Part 3 Using it With Baby Boomers

Thank you so much for listening. I value your support and interest.

It can be difficult to get noticed in iTunes and one thing that can really make a difference is reviews. If you enjoy the show please take a minute to write an honest review in iTunes, it would be most appreciated.

If you are not sure how to write an iTunes review I have made a short video demonstrating how this is done.
