While your IQ and basic intellectual skills opened doors for you to achieve academic goals, over 30 years of research indicates that it is your emotional intelligence (EI) that predicts how successful you will be within a particular occupation (where others have similar intellectual and job-related skills) or whether you will derail, such as Charlie Sheen did even though he has an IQ in the gifted range and is a highly skilled actor. EI also predicts overall well-being, response to health challenges, relationship success and leadership effectiveness.
So just what is EI? This might help; do you want to be skilled at the following: a) understanding yourself better so that you can manage your reactions to difficult situations in highly effective ways, b) communicating effectively, c) connecting with others to achieve common goals and shared understanding, d) making better decisions, and e) managing stress effectively and coping with life’s surprises? If you want these skills, then you want high emotional intelligence! This interactive workshop will teach you what EI, provide evidence about why it is important, and help you improve your EI! You will watch videos of real people in different situations and see the difference higher v. lower EI makes in a given situation.Event Speakers:
- Discuss the 15 different emotional intelligence skill areas and how each predicts workplace performance, leadership effectiveness, and well-being
- Identify one's current level of emotional intelligence, including strengths to leverage and opportunities for development
- Develop stronger emotional intelligence skills in at least 7 of the 15 skill areas through practice
- Apply knowledge of emotional intelligence to work scenarios and cases
- Identify how to implement and use emotional intelligence skills in the workplace
- Develop a simple plan for continued improvement of emotional intelligence
