Emotional Intelligence and Me (EI & Me)

Description

This workshop/course introduces people (of any industry or position) to Emotional Intelligence (EI).

We ask you to complete a short EI self-assessment questionnaire to take away and use for your personal development.

We then introduce the ingredients of EI and chat about why they are essential, what they aim to achieve, and why they are critical to “clean” communication across the whole organisation.

We ask you to consider our Moccasin Approach® and our EI Tree® and why they are tools for the future success of internal and external communication.

We link EI to organisational culture and the inherent responsibility we all have to make our workplace culture the type that retains our people, attracts great people to join our organisation, and is a culture that we are proud to talk about because it is truly lived (not just a flag-waving exercise). 

We look at Empathy, how it works, why it is different from sympathy, and how we must all use it in our daily communication with others.

We discuss how personal styles and preferences (even bias) are critical to everyday communication.

We examine the word trust and discuss its meaning, how we can gain and maintain it, and why consistency is one of our favourite words regarding the element of trust.

We ask you to consider our thinking around 'Change Champions' and Best Practice Managers' to help create high-performing teams and cross-team collaboration and support. 

LENGTH - For more information about duration, please get in touch with us to discuss your specific needs, or we can offer advice.

NEXT WORKSHOP START - Please ask for more information as we deliver bespoke closed events for your people at your location or a mutually suitable location.

WORKSHOP DELIVERY - The best environment for this workshop is face-to-face, but we can facilitate this workshop online.

Who? 

Everyone you employ, including your associate or external consultants.

Why? 

Every person needs to understand how EI works, what it takes to get it right, why it is essential and how it helps anyone develop new, better and more meaningful relationships.

The ultimate goal of EI is to create the best possible working relationships and Psychological Safety so that we can communicate "cleanly" without worrying about getting in trouble for sharing our thoughts and opinions.

By the way, EI is just as powerful at home, socially, and with our children. We can add Socratic questions to the mix to help us impact others' thinking.

Content

This Workshop is usually one day in duration but can be a two-day event with group and individual case study work to allow discussions about the various thoughts we all have about EI.

When you consider the content we deliver, we are sure you will understand why we always prefer to deliver our workshops, courses and programmes face-to-face.

Face-to-face workshops and courses can be held at a location of your choice or, if you wish, a central UK location such as the Macdonald Burlington Hotel in Birmingham, located directly across from the Birmingham New Street train station.

We can deliver our workshops, courses and programmes online, although this will mean splitting elements into manageable learning events to suit the online environment.
