Overview
Emotional intelligence (EQ) is the capacity of individuals to recognise their own, and other people's emotions and to use emotional information to guide thinking and behaviour. It relates to how we build relationships, how we communicate, how we interact and lead others and how we manage ourselves.
The great news is that EQ is underpinned by a set of emotional and social competencies that can be learned. This workshop is designed to accelerate leadership effectiveness by raising EQ awareness, resulting in better resilience and calmness as a leader and enabling a stronger leadership presence.
This session explores how emotional intelligence impacts leadership effectiveness and team dynamics. Participants will learn how to identify and respond more effectively to emotional triggers in themselves and others, while developing practical EQ tools such as self-awareness, optimism, reframing, mindfulness, and calmness. The program also focuses on strategies to help leaders remain composed and effective in high-pressure situations.
