How Mansi Panchal Made Emotional Intelligence Her Secret Weapon for Business Growth

 When I first started my internship with Mansi Panchal at FounderX, I thought business was all about numbers — crunching data, hitting KPIs, closing deals. But very quickly, Mansi flipped that entire mindset for me. She showed me that the real game-changer in business isn’t just your strategy or your hustle — it’s emotional intelligence, or EQ, as she calls it. And not just some “soft skill” checkbox, but a daily, deliberate habit that fuels every decision she makes.

One moment that really stuck with me was when Mansi shared a story about being on hold during a call with her dad. Instead of wasting time, she overheard him genuinely connecting with an employee — listening, empathizing, sharing stories — not barking orders like a boss, but leading like a human. That was her EQ lesson in real-time, and it shook her thinking.

Mansi made it clear: emotional intelligence isn’t something you learn once and forget. It’s a choice you make every day. Because if you’re only chasing numbers and deals without tuning into the people around you — your team, your clients, your partners — you’re missing the whole point.

Since adopting EQ as her secret weapon, Mansi has seen the impact firsthand:

  • Stronger Relationships: When you get beyond surface-level business talk and get real with people, they open up, collaborate, and genuinely have your back. That trust and connection? That’s unshakable power.

  • Sharper Decision-Making: Understanding emotions — yours and others’ — takes your strategy from a shot in the dark to a clear, confident play. You make smarter calls because you’re tuned into what really drives people.

  • Resilience Under Pressure: Stress, setbacks, disappointment — they still come. But with EQ, you bounce back faster, adapt smarter, and keep moving forward without losing your cool.

Mansi’s daily commitment to emotional intelligence is what makes her leadership authentic and effective. It’s the backbone of her approach, the “secret sauce” that separates those who just talk about success from those who actually get it done.

So, if you want to lead, grow, or simply survive the chaos of business today, listen to Mansi: Stop treating EQ like an optional “soft skill.” Start living it every moment — every call, every meeting, every interaction.

Because at the end of the day, business isn’t just about what you do — it’s about how you make people feel. And that’s what wins. Always.

Working With a Force Called Mansi Panchal: A Chapter That Changed Me

  When I joined FounderX as a marketing intern, I didn’t walk in with low expectations. I came in with excitement, curiosity, and a hunger to grow, and FounderX didn’t just meet that energy; it multiplied it. From day one, it was clear this wasn’t going to be a typical internship. It wasn’t about sitting on the sidelines or doing background tasks. It was about real exposure, real conversations, and real learning, which was all under the leadership of someone who lives and breathes entrepreneurship: Mansi Panchal , A woman who doesn’t just run a company, she builds people. And today, I can say with complete honesty, working under her has been the greatest opportunity and the most transformative experience of my career so far. I still remember the moment during my interview when she asked me, “Do you want to start your own business?” I paused, a bit unsure, and replied that I hadn’t thought about it yet. Her response wasn’t judgmental or passive. She looked at me with her sign...

At FounderX, Speed is Key, But CEO Mansi Panchal Still Prioritizes Mentorship

  Startups are known for their speed. Everything moves quickly. The targets, meetings, campaigns, and client requests. But even in the middle of this fast-paced environment, our CEO, Mansi Panchal , somehow always finds the time to mentor. And that’s something I didn’t expect to witness so closely. Over the past few weeks, I’ve seen her sit down with the sales team, not just once or twice, but regularly. She doesn’t just check in for five minutes and leave. She stays. She listens. She watches them take calls, patiently observing their pitch, and when the call ends, she breaks it down step by step. She tells them what worked, what could’ve been said better, and how to shift their approach next time. It’s not about pressure or performance but about growth. She guides them on how to think like a closer, not just sound like one. And when it comes to marketing, her approach is just as involved and intentional. I’ve been in team meetings where Mansi doesn’t just approve or reject ideas. ...

When Clients Feel Like Family: What I Learned Watching Mansi Panchal Work

  There’s a saying in business: “Clients are God.” But at Founder X , I saw something even more powerful: clients being treated like family. It was one of those days you don’t forget easily. A client was visiting the office, and we were all prepped like someone special was about to walk in. The energy felt different and not like pressure, but like excitement. I noticed how every detail was taken care of. Everything was spotless, the vibe was warm, and there was this shared feeling of pride across the team. It reminded me of how we get the house ready when a loved one is visiting. And in that moment, I realized that this wasn’t just business as usual. This was Founder X . And at the center of it was Mansi Panchal . The client walked in carrying a bouquet. Yes, they brought her flowers and a personalized gift for Founder X . That already said a lot. The smiles, the greetings, and the conversations that followed didn’t feel transactional. They felt personal, real, and built on somet...
