Leadership Series: Self-Awareness and Emotional Intelligence

Emotional Intelligence can serve managers and leaders in many ways. With well-tuned Emotional Intelligence, professionals can effectively recognise, use, understand and manage emotions to achieve a positive desired result. Self awareness is a heightened ability to see yourself as others see you.

In a business context, this translates into relieving stress, overcoming obstacles and diffusing conflict. It can help you give and receive feedback when emotions are running high, operate under pressure effectively and distinguish stakeholders’ spoken and unspoken needs in projects.

This self-awareness and emotional intelligence course is ideal for anyone wanting to understand themselves better, manage their emotions and reactions, and gain the ability to change their emotional responses to any situation that arises.

This highly interactive course will encourage delegates to discuss current workplace challenges and will provide practical strategies for dealing with them. It provides a theoretical background and brings the content to life with activities, discussion and role plays.
