Hire for Emotional Intelligence. The 170-year-old maker of household brands like Crest and Pampers has produced multiple generations of leaders by hiring employees who have what the company calls "in-touch capability."

To help employees build on those strengths once they are hired, P&G runs a series of programs and exercises. P&G\'s global HR officer: "We need to have people who can be in touch or have the social intelligence to really understand consumers\' needs."
