You may be familiar with IQ, which measures your cognitive intelligence. But has anyone ask you about EQ or Emotional quotient?

What is EQ?

Simply put EQ, driven by your emotional intelligence, is your awareness regarding your actions and feelings, including how they affect the people around you.

Being emotionally intelligent means you understand the cause and effect of your actions and words.

You understand what the impact of “being you” has on individuals and groups and you understand how to read others emotions and actions to work with their emotional limits.

The key is that you can never change someone, but you can change and adjust yourself.

Emotional Intelligences is about how you change and adjust yourself in the following ways:

• Respecting others
• Listening to others
• Empathizing with others
• Identifying with others

Knowledge workers do their work in teams. Teams are filled with “others”. Your ability to work with those “others” determines what you get done and how fast you get it done.

If you have a high EQ, you get things done fast with minimal negative impact on the organization.

In this session we will cover:

• The meaning of emotional intelligence
• Distinguishing the differences between EQ and IQ
•  How to identify emotional hot buttons
• Determining which emotional intelligence competencies to improve when working with others
• Detecting the signs of emotional outburst in others
