Emotional intelligence (EQ) determines how you handle yourself and others. By building your EQ, you can increase your influence, reduce stress and build healthier work relationships. Explore four key skill-sets of emotional intelligence: self-awareness, self-regulation, empathy and interpersonal influence. Hear how perceptions, thoughts and emotions are connected. Learn to detect and influence 'unresourceful' emotional states (in yourself and others). Find out how to take a resilient, constructive approach to handling problems at work. This is an introductory-level course which gives you tools for working with greater emotional awareness.
