Understanding emotional intelligence is paramount. The way one navigates their emotions and those of others can make a significant difference in leadership. This 6-week, online course is tailored to aid participants in exploring and refining their emotional intelligence, with a focus on empathy, impact, and the overall essence of effective leadership.
« All EventsLeaders, especially those in prominent positions, understand the value of emotional intelligence in decision-making, conflict resolution, and developing genuine connections. Over 6 weeks, with just 1.5 hours per week, this course will cover:
Kickstart your journey by gauging your Emotional Quotient (EQ) through a swift assessment. Explore deeper into understanding emotional intelligence, recognise your emotional strengths and areas needing improvement, discuss the emotional challenges faced in professional settings, and introspect on your emotional aspirations.
Discover your inherent leadership style and reflect on how it influences your actions. Harness the power of visualisation to craft your ideal leadership persona, share and learn from others about the desired impact of leadership, look back on past leadership moments for lessons, and record reflections on core leadership values.
Identify how you naturally approach conflicts and discuss recent conflict scenarios to glean key lessons. Engage in brainstorming sessions to curate effective conflict resolution strategies, reflect on personal triggers that might escalate conflicts, and envision your future approach to handling conflicts.
Engage in discussions highlighting instances of empathetic leadership from various perspectives. Participate in group exercises that emphasise the importance of listening without preconceptions or biases. Open up and share personal challenges faced when trying to incorporate empathy in leadership decisions. Conclude the session by reflecting on personal growth and areas needing attention in empathy through guided prompts.
Measure the current level of trust you inspire through a trust assessment. Discuss common actions that might erode trust, share personal success stories of establishing trust, reflect on the role of honesty in your leadership journey, and brainstorm trust-building strategies.
Bring everything together by summarising your learnings in collaborative group sessions. Share your personal commitments and strategies for emotionally intelligent leadership, celebrate the progress and achievements made during the course, set clear future goals for continuous improvement, and jot down a plan for ongoing learning and application.
