Developing Emotional Intelligence

Instructed by:

Janelle Tarasewicz, Principal Consultant | Aperture EQ

Audience:

Employees, supervisors, managers, or anyone interested in learning more about emotional intelligence.

Description:

Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize and positively manage our emotions. Self-awareness is a critical tool to understanding how emotional intelligence helps strengthen decision making, conflict resolution skills, and team dynamics. People who have a high level of emotional intelligence are better prepared to stay calm, flexible, and focused when workplace crises hits, and panic threatens to set in. Studies have shown that emotional intelligence can have a profound effect on a person’s ability to create more rewarding, collaborative, and satisfying workplace relationships. This, in turn, leads to greater productivity, reduced stress and anxiety, higher levels of performance, and a greater sense of teamwork and camaraderie — all critical components of a successful, productive workplace. Discover how to expand your capacity to help create an environment that fosters emotional intelligence and a high degree of safety and trust.
