Just a few people are able to perceive their emotions, process them using an almost methodical approach and manage them in the best possible way, gaining security and trust.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEmotional culture\u201d is rarely managed: teams that would benefit from joy and pride tolerate a culture of anger and \u201cshame and blame\u201d instead. The effects can be particularly damaging during transitional periods, such as organisational restructuring and crises.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Not knowing how to manage emotions means not knowing how to face defeat<\/strong>: when we experience failure we tend to be overwhelmed by the flow of emotions and we always ask ourselves the same wrong questions \u2013 <em>Why did things happen like this? Why did this happen to me? Where did I go wrong? Why was I so trusting?<\/em> \u2013 alternated with phrases that undermine our identity \u2013 I\u2019m a loser. I\u2019m inadequate. \u201cI don\u2019t count\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The risk, when we are drowning in failure, is to trigger events that may acerbate the situation and to react impulsively, with anger, anxiety, fear and pain, identifying ourselves with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuoladifallimento.com\/en\/glossary\/fail\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">failure<\/a> and relating to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuoladifallimento.com\/en\/glossary\/error\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">mistakes<\/a> as if they were a reflection of ourselves.<br \/>\n<strong>Instead, we need to learn not to be overwhelmed by the flood of thoughts and to observe emotions without judging them, for knowing and understanding ourselves better.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The ability to understand and manage our moods and to recognise and manage those of other people is therefore an important soft skill and one of the key factors that teachers and business leaders should develop and train. <\/p>\n<p>Training can help teachers and managers to develop skills and practices useful for healthy and adequate management of their own emotions and those of their team. Understanding the mechanisms and methods for managing emotions also allows the individual and the group to question their beliefs and to look in a different way at their own mistakes and those of others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the Latin ex \u201cou\u201d and movere \u201cmove\u201d, \u201cbring out\u201d, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scuoladifallimento.com\/en\/glossary\/emotion-management\/\"> [&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":29,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[81],"portfolio_skills":[],"portfolio_tags":[105],"class_list":["post-2955","avada_portfolio","type-avada_portfolio","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","portfolio_category-glossary","portfolio_tags-e"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Emotion management - Glossary - Scuola di Fallimento<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Emotions are a guide for making decisions, they play an important role in evaluating what is right or wrong and in consolidating learning after a mistake.
