Emotion is hard-wired into our systems. Did you know that we cannot make a decision if we do not start from a place of emotion?
In a professional setting, the word "emotion" conjures up images of tears or anger usually. Those are the extremes and not the norm. We are human. To be logical doesn't mean to ignore emotion; it means to acknowledge, understand and then make a choice on how to use it (or not) within our response.
Sometimes, simply acknowledging a feeling shows more intelligence and leadership than pretending that a professional setting is inhabited by Vulcans only.
