EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

Programme Overview

Emotional intelligence (EQ) is consistently shown to be a stronger predictor of success and leadership effectiveness than IQ or technical skill alone. The good news: unlike IQ, emotional intelligence can be developed. This programme builds practical capability across the four domains of EQ - self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management - giving participants tools to manage their own emotions, read others accurately, navigate conflict, and build stronger, more trusting relationships at work and beyond.
