Description
Many creative and intelligent people sometimes don’t manage to realize their good ideas. They often can’t cope with leading their teams and don’t manage to find an adequate cooperation modality. This is not because they lack intelligence or technical skills. What people are most often missing is the critical level of emotional intelligence and the ability to manage their emotions as well as the emotions of others, especially when they are under stress – under pressure or in a conflict situation. The programme is based on lectures and interactive workshops on specific business cases. Emotional intelligence may sound a bit abstract, but it is especially useful and has the highest use value precisely for the people who have a highly developed logical intelligence and analytical capabilities. The programme about emotional intelligence has as its goal the improvement of managers’ leadership skills, as well as team cooperation, mastering a set of techniques for managing personal emotions and influencing co-workers’ behavior, especially in difficult and uncomfortable situations.
