About the workshop
This workshop focuses on the importance of people which is at the heart of all good organisations is its people.

Understanding yourself and others is not just desirable but essential as we adapt to a rapidly changing world. Turbulent times call for emotionally intelligent leaders and this workshop will equip you with a range of invaluable skills to deal with understanding behaviour, managing mood, stress and conflict to optimise performance of individuals and teams.

Using and developing Emotional Quotient (EQ) and Intelligence Quotient (IQ) together remains key to successful leadership, management and people in a continually volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) world.

You will be able to identify clearly what EQ is, why it is important and how it can be developed. You will develop EQ skills so as to understand how your own emotions (intrapersonal) impact on relationships (interpersonal). The workshop will equip you with a wide range of skills for understanding behaviour, managing mood, stress and conflict to optimise the performance of individuals and teams.
