You're facing challenging stakeholders. How can you use emotional intelligence to handle the stress?
It's often that I deal with challenging stakeholders who have conflicting opinions. It's important to listen to your stakeholders feedback and concerns fully before responding, ask open ended questions to ensure you fully understand their concern, and then allowing open dialogue between both parties to be able to communicate and collaborate on ways to work towards a solution that both parties feel good about.
