Emotional Intelligence Training Course

Emotional Intelligence (EI or EQ) surged in popularity after Daniel Goleman’s work highlighted a simple truth: success at work isn’t just about raw brainpower but it’s also about how well you understand yourself and work with others. A high IQ might help you solve problems faster, but a high EQ often determines whether you can collaborate, communicate clearly, stay composed under pressure, and build trust in a team.

This Emotional Intelligence Skills Training course builds practical emotional awareness and self-control. Participants develop stronger self-awareness and self-regulation, improve empathy and assertiveness, and learn how emotions drive behaviour, decisions, and relationships at work. Many organisations are now using emotional intelligence as the foundation of their leadership capability frameworks. This makes a lot of sense as it’s a “self-discovery” step. To understand others you’ve got to understand you.
