Leading with Emotional Intelligence
Research conducted by Gallup has found that the emotional intelligence (EQ) of leaders directly correlates to employee tenure and productivity, with most employees caring more about their relationship with their boss than their salary. Emotional intelligence is a key ingredient in successful leadership and can be developed through practice.
AIM’s Leading with Emotional Intelligence short course shows you how to harness your own emotions and those of others to enhance decision-making, improve behaviour and facilitate high performance. Including a Genos Emotional Intelligence Report, you’ll become aware of how your emotions directly impact those around you, both in work and personal lives.
