WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND
The technical skills that help individuals to secure a job, or even their first promotion might not guarantee their next one. For people who aspire to be in a leadership position role, there is an emotional element they must consider. It is that element that helps them to successfully coach teams, manage stress, deliver feedback, collaborate with others, and deliver results. It is called emotional intelligence (EI), and it is one of the most sought-after interpersonal skills in the workplace. According to Harvard University, 71% of employers value emotional intelligence more than technical skills when evaluating people for promotion for managerial positions.
It is not that cognitive ability (IQ) or technical skills are irrelevant. They do matter, but they are just the entry-level requirements for various jobs in the corporate world.
Throughout this course, participants will develop the necessary competencies and soft skills that would allow them to lead people and deliver organizational results. By mastering EI, participants can continue to advance their career and organizations.
