How to be an Emotionally Intelligent Leader
Overview Achieving better business results, communicating better, and managing conflict, requires the ability to manage emotions in a positive and constructive way. Leaders need to become more self-aware, and develop their ability to recognize their own emotions and how they affect thoughts and behaviour. They need to be able to self-manage, control impulsive feelings and behaviours, and adapt to changing circumstances. They need to become socially aware, understand the emotions, needs, and concerns of other people, pick up on emotional cues, and recognize the power dynamics in their team members and colleagues. They need the ability to develop and maintain good relationships, communicate clearly, inspire and influence others, work well in a team, and manage conflict. This highly interactive workshop develops a leader’s skills and talents in emotional intelligence.

Gallup defines a highly motivated and engaged worker as one who has “heightened emotional connection” with his or her organisation, leading to greater effort in getting the job done. The only way to develop that emotional connection is for an Emotionally Intelligent Leader to communicate with each staff member on a human level as well as a business level.
