Do you show up as a creature of emotion or a creature of logic? Successful people understand their own feelings and the feelings of others around them. They manage their moods, put themselves in other people’s shoes and build rewarding relationships. 95% of us think we are emotionally intelligent like this, but less than 15% are. We expect our leaders to balance the ‘neural see-saw’ –with logic on one side and social skills, like empathy and intuition, on the other.

It’s easy to lead like-minded people, but what about people on a totally different wavelength? Can you control your instinctive fight, flight or freeze response with people that stress you out or annoy you? Soft skills like these can be hard to learn but they are career game changers. The good news is that high EQ isn’t just for superhumans. Boost yours with these practical techniques and frameworks and watch your relationships thrive.

This session will help you:

• Improve your sensitivity to difficult people or those who think differently to you.
• Have better emotional regulation and mood management, especially when under pressure.
• Enhance your questioning and listening techniques to boost your empathy and understanding.
• Become better at balancing logic and emotion in your decisions.
• Collaborate effectively with neurodiverse colleagues.
• Understand interospection: using signals from your body to boost self-awareness.

• Managers and Leaders who want to increase their Emotional Intelligence quotient and self-awareness.
• Managers and leaders who lead teams of all kinds, especially very diverse teams.
• Manages and leaders who recognise they need to be able to better recognise and regulate their responses in tense situations.
