Emotional Intelligence: The Secret to Superior Leadership

Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is now being recognised as one of the most important attributes for great leadership.

Research has shown how understanding the powerful role of emotions in the workplace sets the best leaders apart from the rest.

In essence, emotionally intelligent leaders use effective ways to understand and improve the way they handle their own, and other people’s emotions, thereby leading with RESULTS!

“School leaders who use their EQ inspire teachers to be more dedicated and motivated so that they teach better – and therefore the students learn better.” Dr Daniel Goleman

This workshop explores the tools and techniques involved in emotionally intelligent leadership.

Core topics:
• What is EQ?
• The origins of EQ
• How low EQ can impact the workplace
• Why is EQ important in the workplace?
• Understanding emotions in the context of leadership
• Putting EQ into action
