Includes the EQ-i2.0 assessment

Well-developed Emotional Intelligence (EI) is increasingly seen as a critical leadership trait.

The ability to make sound decisions, innovate, think critically, control stress, motivate, inspire and understand others, are all dependant on the EI of leaders. EI is also much more   important in today’s workplace due to uncertainty and constant change which can exacerbate anxiety and insecurity in employees, leading to distraction, stress and disengagement. High EI in leaders can ameliorate these negative impacts and set up employees for a positive and forward focused outlook.

This one-day masterclass will provide participants with their own EQ-i 2.0 assessment – a powerful conceptual framework that offers unique insights into emotional and social functioning and overall well-being.
