Course Overview

Emotional Intelligence (EI), or emotional quotient (EQ) has become a sought-after quality for many employers. Emotional Intelligence is the ability to identify and regulate personal emotions and understand the emotions of others. A high level of EI helps build strong relationships, reduce stress levels, defuse conflict and improve job productivity and satisfaction.

Research has shown that success in life or work is only 20% dependent on your IQ (Intelligence Quotient) and 80% dependent on Emotional Quotient (EQ). Whilst our intellect helps resolve problems, high levels of Emotional Intelligence enable us to deal with people and problems in a more effective way.

In the workplace, having team members who are high in EI results in employees with higher morale, who are better able to collaborate, show improved critical thinking and problem solving, and are more productive.
