Personal Effectiveness Through Emotional Intelligence – EQ2 (P223)

Develop Practical Skills to Increase EQ at Work and Home

This course will be delivered two ways:

• Live, instructor-led session online
• In person (in classroom) in Ottawa

Please check available dates in the two sections on the right, and click the corresponding REGISTER ONLINE button for your choice.

This course follows Personal Effectiveness Through Emotional Intelligence – EQ1 (P740). It builds on the theory and self-awareness of this initial program and it focuses on developing the practical skills and behaviours that increase one’s own emotional intelligence—both at work and in personal life. This course provides the opportunity to gain greater knowledge and skills to understand, express and regulate one’s emotions. In addition, participants will develop strategies to manage emotional interactions with others.

Participants engage in a variety of self-reflective exercises, group activities, and discussion to explore and develop higher levels of emotional intelligence in a supportive environment.

Note: Previous participation in Personal Effectiveness Through Emotional Intelligence – EQ1 (P740) is recommended but not mandatory.  Class size is limited to 14 persons due to the highly interactive nature of this course.

This is a two-day workshop in Ottawa.

Space is still available for all course dates listed, unless otherwise noted.
