What is the next level? What needs to change?
Emotional Intelligence: While many of us believe we are not emotional beings, a closer look makes us realize that we live in a constant emotional state – sometimes excited, sometimes angry, sometimes joyful, sometimes sad, sometimes disappointed and sometimes at ease – yet always operating in some emotional state. The "Emotional Intelligence" learning process gets to the roots of what drives our behaviors and adds clarity to the habits of our actions.
What is Emotional Intelligence? It is the ability to manage our strong emotions and the ability to understand and manage the emotions of others. It is Self Awareness and Self Management; Social Awareness and Social Management. At the core it is Relationship Management and Connection.
In the new economy the competencies of EI are needed more than ever before. Because of the rapid rate of change we all need to live with ambiguity. Because of the explosion of information we need to work with people more than ever before to get a job done.
In this world of change, much rests on the ability of the leader and manager to coach their people to grow the business. Mastering one’s emotions as well as the emotions of others acts as the definitive 'edge' in driving this critical relationship between employees and their direct supervisors and leaders.
