Emotional intelligence (EI) is the ability to identify, understand, and manage emotions in yourself and others. By recognising all the key elements of emotional intelligence, including self-management, social awareness, empathy and how to respond to emotions, you can drastically develop your own management techniques and increase the morale and productivity of your team. 

EI is a crucial underpinning of performance at work, including when working or leading remotely. As well as providing insights to help manage your own wellbeing, morale and productivity, EI offers a toolkit for managing and leading others. 

Attend this half-day course on Emotional Intelligence in Practice when Working (including Remotely), to utilise EI to improve workplace culture, well-being and employee performance. You will learn to adapt your leadership styles and discover the power of the coaching style of leadership to bring out the best in others.
