What makes you mad, sad or glad? The chances are they are the same things that make your customers and colleagues mad, sad or glad. Emotions are heartfelt, personal and grounded in your senses. They shape your behaviour, your relationships, your most important decisions and even your economy. In an economy shaped by emotion, success comes from attracting the emotional consumer or colleague, not the rational one. Emotions determine whether or not people will work well for you, buy from you, employ you and enter in to business with you.
