What is Emotional Intelligence (EQ)?
EQ is the combination of:
Interpersonal Skills
Skills for relating to others
Intrapersonal Skills
The self-awareness and skills to manage yourself and your emotional state
"Once you have the foundation IQ to perform a role, intellect loses its power to determine who will emerge as a productive employee or an effective leader. For that, how you handle yourself and your relationships - in other words, the emotional intelligence skill set - matters more than your IQ".

We will focus on developing some of the skills that people with high EQ actually have and use unconsciously. The training will assist people to move forward in the development of EQ and to recognize that EQ is something that can be developed.
The training will be highly experiential, including skills for:

- “Analysing hundreds of executive and leader ship positions in 15 global businesses, 90% of the difference between average and best performers was emotional competencies”
- “Among over 2000 managers from 12 large organisations, 81% of the competencies that distinguished outstanding managers were related to emotional intelligence”
