In this interactive session, we'll examine the crucial role emotional intelligence plays in building strong relationships, navigating difficult conversations, and driving project success. We'll spend time developing your self-awareness so that you can adapt your mindset to different situations, allowing you to communicate and lead more effectively. You'll learn to recognize your emotional triggers, biases and blind spots. Join us as we deep dive this topic and start building new habits that will help you approach challenging situations with clarity and composure.
