When I saw the title, I knew it was you 😄.

This is super interesting, and most aspiring leaders should read it, as emotion management is not only about controlling yourself whatever happens. It's also managing the aftermath of an emotional burst, which can happen to everybody.

The best example I've seen are professional tennis players. Tennis is an extremely tough sport, physically and mentally. The best players (if you except Roger Federer who was made of stone) are the ones who burst emotionally, then focus back on what they were doing, and end to win the game. This is short term emotion management, but when you're in crisis mode, or under pressure, that's something you must master much more than long term recovery.

So thank you for sharing the long term part as well.
