You can’t be liked by everyone, but much of your likability is in your own hands! Consider the most likeable people that you have ever met. Describe them to yourself. What is it that made you so comfortable around them? Now take a look at the words you used. I am willing to bet that you largely focused on qualities that under people’s control, things like approachability, humility, positivity, etc. These qualities, and others like them, describe people who are skilled in emotional intelligence (EQ). There is even research data from TalentSmart for over a million people that shows people who possess these skills aren’t just highly likeable, they outperform those who don’t by a large margin. Ninety percent of top performers have high EQs, people with high EQs make $29,000 more annually than people with low EQs, and a single-point increase in your EQ adds $1,300 to your salary. Dr. Travis Bradberry, the award-winning coauthor of the best selling book, Emotional Intelligence 2.0, has spent a lot of time thinking about likability, how it relates to emotional intelligence, and how humble folks like you and I can take steps to be more likeable. You can grab a copy of his full book below, but I’ve taken the time to distil out what I think are the most important habits for us as tour leaders. In this latest training video, I share 11 habits of likeable people and offer down-to-earth ideas on boosting your charisma, charm and likability. We’ve also created a PDF cheat sheet, '11 Habits of Likeable Tour Leaders’, which you can download, print out, and use as you see fit! https://www.beabetterguide.com/11-habits-of-likeable-tour-leaders/
