About this episode
Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to understand, interact, and communicate effectively with others in a range of settings and situations. It's about being able to 'read the room'. Know what to say and not say. And how. And when. And how much. And to whom. It's about knowing what's 'being said' when nobody's talking. It's about understanding someone else's reality in the moment. That your intention is probably not their experience. That your 'funny' is their offensive. Your clear concept, their confusing idea. It involves recognising and interpreting other people's emotions, motivations, desires, and intentions, and responding in ways that foster connection, collaboration, and mutual understanding. I believe this kind of intelligence is an interpersonal superpower.
Enjoy.
