Are you experiencing frustration in your career?

Do you encounter conflict regularly when working with others, with your team and with your manager?

Most workplace issues are people-related or relational-related.  Leadership competencies essential to effective performance are related to emotional intelligence - a key skill to meet the business challenges of today and for the 2020's.  

Leaders high in emotional intelligence are more effective at building and maintaining relationships and managing conflict.

People trained in emotional intelligence show an increase in capabilities within a few weeks, which is sustained over the long term.  There are measurable improvements in decision making, influence and quality of life, and in creating value through people for people.

The course is for anyone who is interested in developing their understanding of emotional intelligence to improve performance.

How is the programme delivered?

The online distance learning programme is delivered using our online learning platform that gives you lots of flexibility to study when and where you wish.

You will have the chance to discuss and debate your findings around your emotional intelligence in a group discussion with others studying the same programme as you. You will be supported throughout by internationally renowned emotional intelligence coach, trainer and facilitator - Robin Hills.

There are some exercises for you to do as a part of the programme to find out how you view your emotional intelligence and how others view your emotional intelligence. These involve some activity with other people and some reflection. They will help to guide you on what and how you need to change. [WARNING: this takes some effort and you may not like what you find out!]

The course contains a number of practical activities to put into practice and can apply what you have learnt. 

What is the duration of the programme?
