Topic: Leading With Emotional Intelligence - Cultivating Your Inner Strength
Description: Nothing stirs our emotions like the dynamics in a relationship, but often our interaction and reactions are based on mismanaged emotions. Emotional Intelligence is the capacity to recognize and effectively manage emotions in ourselves and with others.
Emotional intelligence increases our ability to make good decisions, build relationships, deal with stress, navigate social complexities, and cope with change. It serves as the foundation for a host of critical skills - it impacts most everything you say and do each day. It is the single biggest predictor of performance in the workplace and the strongest driver of leadership and personal excellence. Emotional Intelligence or EQ has been deemed – the “other kind of smart” in addition to IQ. Research has revealed that 90% of high performers have high EQ’s and that 58% of our job performance is based on EQ.
This program is designed for professionals seeking to maximize their performance by increasing their self-awareness and managing their emotions to achieve positive results.
What You Will Learn
- Create an environment for productive work relationships
- Increase deliberateness in making decisions
- Manage your emotions with confidence
- Temper negative responses to distressing situations
