Suzie DeBusk presents ‘Understanding Emotional Intelligence at Work’ at our Professional Development luncheon at the Holiday Inn Viera!
Overview: Despite equal intellectual capacity, training, or experience, some people excel while others of the same caliber lag behind. Ever wonder why? More than 25 years of research in the neurological field and specific study about factors contributing to success in the workplace have resulted in breaking through perceptions about intelligence. Quantifiable data on performance across a myriad of industries and organizations has resulted in a body of study called emotional intelligence (EQ), the “intangibles” that predict success in the workplace.
Highlights & Objectives: People rarely derail because of the lack of technical skills, but rather because of emotional failings. This presentation gives leaders a solid understanding of emotional intelligence factors, how EQ impacts the workplace, and competencies related to developing higher levels of emotional intelligence.
At the end of this session, participants will:
1. Understand the definition of Emotional Intelligence.
2. Recognize the impact of Emotional Intelligence on the work place.
3. Learn how Emotional Intelligence is measured.
4. Learn how to improve their Emotional Intelligence.
