Emotional Intelligence on the Front Lines with Dimyas Perdue and Gregory Campbell
In this episode of the HRchat Podcast, we consider lessons from the military and police force that can be used to improve the EI of corporate leaders and employees.
The guests this time are Dimyas Perdue, Director of Military Solutions and Gregory Campbell, PhD, VP of Law Enforcement and Government at TalentSmart Inc.
As lead of TalentSmartEQ’s military vertical, Dimyas brings over 22 years of training and leadership experience. He is a retired United States Marine and prior to joining TalentSmartEQ, he served as the Senior Enlisted Advisor for the Lejeune Leadership Institute through Marine Corps University. During his tenure, Dimyas was responsible for the creation and/or management of many service-wide programs including the Force Fitness Instructor Program, Marine Leader Development Program, Slated Enlisted Leaders Orientation Course, and the Commander’s course, all of which serviced over 185,000 Marines Corps-wide.
As TalentSmartEQ’s Vice President of Law Enforcement & Government, Greg brings over 25+ years of experience to the team. His passion is in coalition building, strategic leadership, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) leadership development, and helping unleash the power of EQ, especially in the law enforcement community.
Questions for Dimyas and Gregory include:
- How does EQ show up in the workplace?
- How does EI show up in the military and how can EI relate to the HR function?
- How can HR and leaders help to develop an understanding and practice of EI in the workplace?
- TalentSmart's new Developing EQ™ in Policing program recognizes the importance of Emotional Intelligence (EQ) for our law enforcement officers and gives them the tools they need to engage with the community each and every day. Tell us more.
- On the TalentSmart website, it claims "Your team’s performance is measured by what they accomplish as a group, and you can increase your team’s efficiency and effectiveness by developing their team EQ." Surely developing EQ is something for individuals? How can one develop the collective EI of a team?
