Emotional Intelligence ("EI"), also known as "EQ", is the ability to harness your emotions in sensing, understanding, and responding adeptly to social cues in your environment. It is often referred to as the "common sense" that allows one to relate to people and get along in the world.
This common sense, or Emotional Intelligence, is what every leader uses to make pivotal decisions, plan projects and initiatives, solve problems, interact with clients, set performance expectations, communicate feedback, and interact with colleagues of all levels.
As a leader, you have most likely spent significant time developing your intellectual, analytical and logical thinking abilities, while investigating the latest leadership and management theories/tools to improve your performance. These are all important IQ related criteria, but they are limited because research has shown that a measure of EI is a far better predictor of success than IQ.
While your IQ will remain stable for most of your life, you can develop and perfect the competencies associated with EI to achieve higher performance as a leader. This workshop will show you how.
