Overview
Emotional Intelligence (EI) is about the ability to identify, assess, and manage the emotions of yourself, of others, and of groups. It’s about knowing when and how to express emotion. It’s about controlling emotion.
It’s a statement of the obvious that the ability to manage feelings (including stress) is important to long-term success in both our personal and business lives. More than a statement, though, it’s a fact underpinned by research.
Business Psychologists developed our teaching model. It incorporates its share of theory (a subject like this has to) but don’t be misled. Its emphasis is overwhelmingly practical not only in the way it overflows with techniques, behaviours and stratagems that participants can put into practice immediately, but also in the way we map the individual participants EI in relation to the job that she or he does.
