Course Overview
"Feelings" have been the unspoken word. Yet if left unchecked, fear, anger, disappointment, frustration and apathy poison results, regardless of how bright and talented people are. Learning how to identify the source of emotions and how to shift people at an emotional level is a critical factor in the success, or failure, of leaders.
Do you have a star performer who is disrupting the team or a low performer who needs motivation? Do you need to help people embrace change more quickly? When you understand what is triggering their emotions and behavior, your conversations and results will get you better results.
This workshop was designed to give leaders, managers, and corporate coaches insights into their own behavior as well as provide a language and set of tools to help them when in conversation with others. Results include increasing satisfaction with work, improving relationships, decreasing upset from conflicts and disappointments, and finding solutions to difficult problems that have caused anger, stress, and frustration.
The program starts with self-awareness and emotional management because it is difficult to be emotionally intelligent with others if you are not the master of your own emotions. You need to have a clear mind to hear the language of emotions in others and then to determine how to help them break through their blocks to success.
The final day includes leading emotionally intelligent teams. It starts with how to lay the foundation for a team to work well together. Then the participants will learn how to apply their emotional intelligence when working with teams.
The course ends with tips on sustaining emotional intelligence even when work and life is constantly changing.
Methods Used
The workshop is highly interactive, giving participants a chance to practice the new skills and to discuss how to integrate the skills into their leadership and coaching. Techniques used include self-awareness exercises, exercises to increase influence in both one-on-one and team situations, and games to increase awareness, intuition, influence, and successful interpersonal interactions.
