Postdoc Academy Workshop: Emotional Intelligence in the Workplace - management of self

New

Many believe that emotional intelligence (EQ) is a better predictor of success in the workplace than IQ. The good news is that EQ can be developed and improved over time.

In this two-part interactive workshop, you will gain an understanding of the key skills needed to develop your emotional intelligence – managing your own emotions and the emotions of others.

Through activities and discussions, you’ll reflect on your default behaviour in workplace situations and explore your strengths and areas for further development.

In this first 2-hour session, you will gain insights into:

• self-awareness: understanding and managing your emotions, recognising triggers, and managing stress
• self-regulation: developing emotional self-control.

Although parts one and two can be attended separately, we recommend participating in both.

Once your attendance has been confirmed, you will be invited to attend an optional follow-up group coaching session to enhance and consolidate your learning. This virtual session is scheduled for 14:00-15:30 on Monday 20th March.
