ABOUT THE COURSE
Organizational research shows high-performing leaders possess advanced talents in leveraging key emotional intelligence skills. Generally, these individuals know how to tactfully avoid displays of frustration or anger, and they consistently and effectively manage their emotions when confronted with difficult people and situations. Effective leaders also play a critical role in directing and motivating others, promoting enthusiasm, and driving performance in the workplace.
Leaders adept in applying emotional intelligence skills validate the usefulness of this skillset in offering a rewarding pathway to leadership. For both aspiring and existing leaders, these skills are integral for making decisions, communicating and empathizing with others, overcoming workplace challenges, and maintaining resilience. For optimal effectiveness, however, it is important for individuals to hone their awareness and recognize how they impact others in interpersonal relationships. By learning action-oriented strategies and using dynamic resources, individuals can discover their leadership potential and successfully lead with emotional intelligence.
