| Register Here |
Emotions impact every area of our lives and drive our thoughts, behaviors, and decisions. Our ability to recognize, understand, and manage our emotions is the foundation of emotional intelligence (EQ). Learning and practicing EQ increases leadership ability, builds personal confidence, reduces staff turnover, decreases occupational stress, increases team performance, improves decision-making, and strengthens personal well-being.
