Emotional intelligence (EQ) is a hot topic right now. So hot that it caused a lot of controversy on ABC’s The Bachelor, where one contestant told another that she “lacked the emotional intelligence” to be with this season’s bachelor. Burn.

It seems simple enough. You get hired for a job. You tell your employer who you are, where you live and sign up for various programs and benefits. Every two weeks your pay shows up in your bank account, and if you need to go the doctor, your insurance works the way you expect. Sign up, work, get paid. But as anyone who has ever come anywhere near the process of managing core HR data, payroll, and benefits knows, this “simple” task is anything but easy.

Most companies have established a system of progressive discipline for dealing with employees with performance or behavior problems. Too often, though, unthinking managers derail the process. The tough truth is that any policy’s only as good as the people who have to enforce it on a day-to-day basis. Managers are only human (despite what their underlings may occasionally think), and, like the rest of us, they’re susceptible to acting on ingrained personality quirks.

The French writer Antoine de Saint Exupéry once said, “A goal without a plan is just a wish.”. Similarly, marketing to HR without a plan is merely wishful thinking. To achieve great marketing results, and to grow your business, you need a good marketing plan.
