During this session, you'll explore:
What emotional intelligence is and why it’s crucial for leaders
How to leverage EQ to foster collaboration, creativity, and results
Practical strategies for applying emotional intelligence in the workplace
This isn’t just a lecture—you’ll actively participate in practicing core EQ skills. Through interactive exercises, you’ll gain firsthand experience in using emotional intelligence to navigate real-life leadership challenges, manage your emotions, and build stronger relationships.
We live in a world that often prizes logic over emotion, but research shows that true leadership demands more. By harnessing your emotions—whether fear, joy, or sadness—you tap into an essential source of energy and wisdom. Drawing on examples like the famous Star Trek character Spock, we’ll bust common leadership myths, such as the belief that great leaders are emotionless or born that way. You’ll discover why the best leaders aren’t those who suppress emotions but those who use them strategically to inspire others.
