Emotions matter in your workplace
Emotions affect workplace decisions and strategies every day. Ask yourself:

• Have you ever decided not to hire someone because 'something just didn't feel right'?
• Would you ask your boss for more resources when the boss is having 'a bad day'?
• Do you take a different approach when dealing with a disgruntled customer?
• How might you help motivate an under-performing team member to succeed?

Emotions influence your behaviours at work
The emotions you experience at work also influence the behaviours you display to others, including:

• tone of voice
• body language
• facial expressions
