Emotional Intelligence (Why do I care?.... or do I?)

IQ (Intelligence Quotient) is a measure of intelligence that we've all probably heard of and it's certain that this sort of intelligence is something that leaders and managers require, often a selection process will include a way of gauging IQ and it is demonstrated by academic achievement or competency testing or simply by investigation during an interview or task. IQ alone though is not enough, successful managers and leaders have Emotional Intelligence and highly successful companies like Amazon, Microsoft, BMW, Toyota and many more use EI as a predictor of success and develop it to drive business performance.

Emotional Intelligence is about a set of skills that define how well we recognise and respond to emotions. Emotions affect how we respond to the world around us and have a profound effect on our ability to motivate control and inspire others. We’ve all been in situations where the motivation to ..[ more ]

Letter to the Editor - Trading Standards, CENSolutions

Dear Ian

You may have seen news in the press recently that CENSolutions has been providing voluntary training presentations on the Construction Products Regulation and those harmonised EN Standards relating to the Fenestration Industry, to various Trading Standards regions across the UK.

With a 9 strong team of Independent Auditors, servicing the UK and Ireland, CENSolutions is working with manufacturers on a daily basis and understand all too well their frustrations when it comes to the unethical element of the market place that does not comply with current legislation. Put quite simply, why do some people bother with compliance, when others don’t and appear to get away with it scot free? ..[ more ]

Yours sincerely

Mike Gaillard
Joint Managing Director of CENSolutions Ltd

Letter to the editor - Is the industry becoming too fixated with colour?

Dear Ian,

We all know that colour has exploded in popularity over the last few years, with a bigger selection of finishing options than ever before. For consumers, that’s great – it means more choice, and the ability to match products to a specific project or property. But is it possible that as an industry we’ve become too prejudiced against traditional white finishes, and too fixated on colour?

We hear a lot about the benefits of colour, of which there are many. But very rarely do we hear anything about the potential pitfalls. . ..[ more ]

Yours sincerely

Peter Dyer,
Managing Director, Dempsey Dyer
