I consider good people skills and emotional intelligence to be two of my strengths. However, as this article about Lincoln highlights, it can also be a weakness. An acute sensitivity to people's feelings can serve me well but can also make it difficult when I worry too much about hurting them. Everybody is different and sometimes people need to be given a tough message for the greater good of the group or organisation. And the truth is that those sort of people usually bounce back up far better than I ever would, so I should not always put my own fears of being knocked back on other people.
