Emotional Intelligence: The Human Side of Leadership

Course Description

“People with well-developed emotional skills are also more likely to be content and effective in their lives, mastering the habits of mind that foster their own productivity….” 

Emotional Intelligence is the strongest driver of leadership and personal excellence.

• Leaders with high levels of emotional intelligence earn $29K more in salary than those with low levels of emotional intelligence
• Every point increase in EQ (emotional quotient) is equivalent to $1,300 in annual salary

Emotional intelligence is now increasingly recognised by organisations worldwide as an important leadership quality. The emotionally intelligent leader will be more resilient, have better work relationships and make smarter and more authentic decisions.

Emotional intelligence enables you to bring thinking and feelings together, working in harmony with IQ, cognitive intelligence, to create a more rounded and successful individual.

As a leader you are responsible for generating trust, building authentic relationships and effective teams.  It is vital that you lead by example and inspire excellence in others.

Effective leaders are distinguished by their emotional and social intelligence. Emotional and social intelligence helps business leaders to successfully address fundamental challenges in a changing workplace and drive performance. Research has found that individuals with strong leadership potential tend to have higher levels of emotional and social intelligence, suggesting that they are significant qualities for business leaders and managers to have.  As the pace of change is increasing and the world of work is making ever greater demands on a person’s cognitive, emotional and physical resources, this particular set of abilities is becoming increasingly important.

Some people are naturally great with other people. However, for most people it takes a dedicated amount of time and energy to build good, powerful business relationships that are authentic and lasting.  Successful and powerful business relationships don’t just happen without dedicated, consistent work.  To be truly effective within a work context, a person has to learn how to interact with others, and how to negotiate their way through life’s events and experiences. They are such an integral and necessary part of success, but many people do not seem to want to put in the work.

This CPE webinar will support your self-development to become a better leader able to empower teams to achieve a greater vision and purpose, to become more resilient, have better work relationships and make smarter and more authentic decisions for both yourself and your team.
