Emotional Intelligence

During the Emotional Intelligence session we will learn the following:

Objectives

  1. The Importance and Benefits of Emotional Intelligence

Do you sometimes wish others ‘got you’?  Are you negatively affected at times by the behavior of others?  If you answered ‘yes’ to either of these questions this 40-minute session will be game-changing for you.

Your eyes will be open to how your behavior affects others.  We will learn how very important it is the display emotional intelligence throughout all aspects of life.  The benefits are astounding.  The team of emotionally intelligent leaders thrives as opposed to merely surviving.
