Cultivating your Leadership Emotional Intelligence (EQ) – 27 April 2022 (On Demand)

Description

Cultivating your Leadership Emotional Intelligence (EQ).

Emotional Intelligence is one of the most powerful predictors of happiness, life success and Leadership effectiveness! In this webinar we review and discuss ways Leaders can improve their EQ.

Decades of peer reviewed research has established Emotional Intelligence (EQ) as a foundational skill set for Leaders. In this webinar we look at the science behind EQ and how it contributes to Leadership effectiveness.

We break EQ into it’s five component parts and examine each in some detail. We look at:

• Self-awareness – our capacity to understand our emotional and feeling world, and those of others
• Self-regulation – our capacity to manage our feelings/emotions and behaviour constructively
• Motivation – the sources of motivation that drive our thinking and actions
• Empathy – our capacity to tune into others
• Social Skills – our ability to connect with others in constructively and mutually beneficial ways

For each of these we examine how they work within our thinking and behaviour, their contribution to the way we lead or interact with others and how we can cultivate each more deeply.

What you will learn

• Participants will deepen their knowledge of EQ and its importance for our professional and personal wellbeing
• Understand how each component influences thinking, feeling and behaviour
