 Become an Emotional Intelligence Warrior! Join us online! https://asu.zoom.us/j/4803099426 Do you have great ideas during a meeting, but can't quite get them out because you of excitement or fear? Do you have difficulty having hard conversations because you think your feelings get in the way? Would you like to be more logical in your decision making? These are tough challenges, but here is a little secret: Everyone struggles with the balancing act between emotions and reason. I have found comfort, and opportunity, in knowing that other people have had the same issues and have found a way to be successful. Passion is important to innovation and we want that passion to be productive. By embracing Emotional Intelligence (EQ) you can develop better awareness to help your relationships and your communication skills while harnessing that passion. Learning these methods will allow you to be clearer about what you want and to better understand what drives and motivates others. I will go over the 4 pillars of Emotional Intelligence - Self Awareness, Self-Management, Social Awareness, and Relationship Management; what they mean, how they can help you, and I will offer up some simple exercises. We will primarily spend our time on the first two pillars related to managing yourself.
