PD Bootcamp #12 | Lunch & Learn Workshop (Virtual)

The Emotionally Intelligent Leader

Thursday, February 1, 2024
4pm-5pm via Zoom

Emotional intelligence — the ability to recognize and positively manage emotions in yourself, others, and among groups — is a powerful component of effective leadership. An understanding of emotional intelligence improves self-awareness, increases accountability, fosters communication, and builds trusting relationships in the workplace.

Research has demonstrated that emotional intelligence has a strong impact on organizational performance — workers are more inclined to go the extra mile when asked to do so by an empathetic leader they respect and admire.

This workshop is designed to help you gain an honest awareness of yourself, how your behavior impacts others, and how to get the best from your team. Once you complete this program, you will be able to:

Understand emotional intelligence and why it’s increasingly important for leadership
Use emotional intelligence to improve leadership and build more effective relationships
Leverage emotional intelligence in managing difficult discussions
Improve personal and organizational resilience

This program is designed for professionals leading (or aspiring to lead) across industries, and the topics discussed will be particularly useful for people who work with others to accomplish organizational goals as well as those looking to enhance their leadership skills.
