Intellectual and technical skills are no longer enough on their own to assure success in the workplace. Daniel Goleman the famous emotional intelligence guru indicates: "Emotional intelligence is a much stronger predictor of who will be most successful, because it is how we handle ourselves in our relationships that determines how well we do once we are in a given job."

The emotional intelligence framework guides people to understanding their own feelings, motivations and behaviours. Through this self-awareness, they develop better self-management and they gain the ability to handle and control their emotions and actions. It also helps them at understanding other people's emotions and develops social skills that allow people to build better social relationships. People who are emotionally intelligent waste less time on personality conflicts, stay in control under stress and achieve greater satisfaction at work and at home.

Join us for this 45-minute webinar (plus Q&A) in which we will discuss:

• The impact of emotional intelligence on your career success
• 5 pillars of emotional intelligence
• How to increase emotional intelligence
