Emotional Intelligence in Leadership Program
This isn’t any EQ course - It has been specifically designed to enable you to learn through reflection and practical application, by challenging yourself in all areas of EQ. You may find yourself pondering, exploring, contemplating, smiling, cringing, debating, and even laughing in this self-paced course, which consists of approximately 18 hours of learning content. This course can be delivered in a classroom-style on request.
 
Welcome to the Emotional Intelligence (EQ) in Leadership program. Whether you are a leader within any discipline responsible for leading projects or operational functional areas, or an employee seeking to develop your talent for leadership capabilities or developing your leadership as part of your succession planning or seeking to bring the transfer of knowledge to teams for effective performance, then this program will aim to do just that.
 
How you will benefit?
This isn’t any ordinary EQ course. Although it is entirely based on scientific theoretical knowledge, it goes beyond theory. We will keep you engaged with various learning nuggets and activities that are personalized, for your thinking and transformation.

What do you need to do?
You may work off a provided electronic PDF, or you may print off the workbook and use it to review and think, in those moments of available time. Throughout this programme, you will be prompted to refer to your workbook to participate in the various activities.
