Emotional Intelligence: The Cutting Edge of Leadership

Course details

INTRODUCTION

It has become increasingly clear that to lead, one has to fully engage the minds, emotions and spirit of those led. While many of us are adept at presenting goals and plans and persuading intellectually, are we just as effective in creating an emotionally healthy environment – where people are emotionally connected to themselves, one another and the work they do?
