A Different Kind of Smart: Applying Emotional Intelligence at Work (Career Event #20)

Emotional Intelligence is the essential building block in a leader’s ability to establish the right climate for business to succeed.

Description:  An organization that creates a culture of high trust relationships promotes high productivity, top quality, operational efficiencies, strong morale and increased employee retention. Without trusting relationships that are forged daily at all levels, organizations become self-limiting and susceptible to events that dampen morale and discourage professional achievement.

Emotional Intelligence is the essential building block in a leader’s ability to establish the right climate for business to succeed. Whether you are a small business owner, manager in a midsized company or CEO in a large corporation, you must demonstrate daily a high degree of emotional intelligence in your leadership role.

A Different Kind of Smart demonstrates the direct link between emotional intelligence and your performance as a leader, and gives you specific techniques to improve your EQ competencies.
