Emotional Intelligence:  Personal and Professional Development Workshop (2 hours to 2 days)

Emotional Intelligence is a topic that has become of critical importance.  Successful leaders (for better or for worse: from Martin Luther King to Hitler) have always known that the secret to effectively leading others and gaining their trust involves engaging their brain, but much more important, engaging their heart.  Emotional intelligence is not how to appeal to the heart; but to both the head and the heart.  Furthermore, to successfully lead others you first have to most be able to lead yourself, much easier said than done.  You will learn:

  1. How to make better decisions, manage negative emotions, increase positive experiences (and why this is so critical to your health and your success)
  2. How to read others much more accurately, all of which just increases your leadership skill
  3. What leadership is not, when leadership is unhealthy and/or just plain ineffective, and
  4. How can we prevent, or stop, bad leaders.

What you learn will help you in all areas of your life, and especially increase your effectiveness in your organization.
