Emotional Intelligence

Event Overview

Have you ever seen someone “fly off the handle” at work and thought poorly of them because of their behavior?  Or has that person ever been you?  There’s no doubt that emotions are what drive our actions and therefore they are important and necessary in the workplace.  But the successful individual is the one that is aware of their own emotions, can recognize them, manage them, and channel them into productive behavior, instead of destructive behavior.  This event explores a concept that has been studied by psychologists for decades and which now has gained recognition and acceptance by today’s foremost business leaders as a crucial skill set.
