Emotional Intelligence Skills for Improved Personal and Professional Performance

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

Staff at all levels in the organization that want to improve their emotional intelligence competency so that they can get the very best results from their relationships with others in pursuit of their life and the organization’s goals.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Emotional intelligence (EI) is the innate potential, skill or self-perceived ability to identify, assess, and control the emotions of oneself, of others, and of groups. It describes abilities distinct from, but complementary to, academic intelligence, the purely cognitive capacities measured by IQ. Researchers and business experts agree that people with high emotional intelligence are consistently the top performers in their organizations. They are more resilient and flexible when things get tough, and are held in the highest regard by their bosses, peers, co-workers, and others. Mastery of emotional intelligence is vital for personal progression, organizational development and driving business growth.

Emotional Intelligence is a new and refreshing approach to emotional intelligence that provides the fundamental knowledge required to develop awareness of EI and improved performance in and out of work. The program takes a holistic view of emotional intelligence and introduces the delegate to the knowledge, skills and attitude required to utilize the power and energy of one’s emotions to build more productive relationships in any setting at all levels.

The program is well researched, knowledge-based and designed with the individual learner at the centre of the learning process which means that the course is extremely interactive and practical.
