Training Course Overview

Daniel Goleman's influential book, "Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ," introduced EI to a wide audience, rooted in cutting-edge neuroscience. This research underscores the pivotal role of emotional centers in our brains, profoundly shaping our thoughts and actions in everyday life.

Emotional Intelligence (EI) involves perceiving, distinguishing, managing, and assessing our emotions, aiming to use this awareness to effectively navigate behaviors and relationships. This intensive five-day course is crafted to foster the growth and refinement of EI alongside communication skills. Practical skill-building will be emphasized, promising significant personal and professional rewards.
