The current business realities of our digital era are reshaping the rules for business success and making great demands on today’s managers, who are more challenged than ever before.
For today’s manager to safeguard success, technical competencies and effective day-to-day management and coordination are not enough; they also need to develop a leadership mind-set and a set of competencies with which they can successfully lead people to achieve personal, departmental and company goals.
Emotional Intelligence (EQ), an essential management requirement of our era, encompasses a set of competencies which allow managers to develop the leadership mind-set and the competencies they need to be successful by enabling them to understand and manage emotions and impulses in themselves and others, to communicate effectively, problem solve and build rapport even in stressful and tense situations.
This programme uses learnings from the latest management thinking and research, to enable managers to develop a leadership mind-set and equip them with the tools, skills and techniques they need to harness the power of EQ and safeguard their success.
