“If your emotional abilities aren't in hand, if you don't have self-awareness, if you are not able to manage your distressing emotions, if you can't have empathy and have effective relationships, then no matter how smart you are, you are not going to get very far.” - Daniel Goleman.
According to relevant research, emotional intelligence accounts for about 80% of success - the percentage rises to 90% for top leadership positions! EI matters at the individual, group and organizational level.

The workshop is conducted virtually through ZOOM or other available platforms and combines relevant theory with practice, based on the principles of coaching. Topics are discussed in combination with fun activities, which will “equip” participants with a set of tools that will help them better manage themselves and their relationships with others.
Highly recommended for those executives who hold or will hold senior level positions. Also for employees across levels participating in group projects; emotional intelligence is a common language that everyone should speak!
