Developing Emotionally Intelligent Leaders
This one-day intensive workshop provides you with new insights, and an action plan for elevating your effectiveness as a leader using key elements of emotional intelligence.
What Makes an Emotionally Effective Leader?
Emotionally Intelligent leaders employ specific emotional and social skills to impact the way they perceive and express themselves, develop and maintain relationships, and cope with everyday challenges. These skills help them get better results, faster, and with less stress and drama.

I highly recommend Linda Marshall’s workshop on The Emotionally Effective Leader for all professionals looking to develop their skills as leaders in the workforce. It was extremely educational and I left with a great deal of information about where I can improve in order to be a better, more effective leader. It was very eye opening to learn how crucial emotional intelligence is for leaders to possess and I learned so many useful techniques to help build on my skills.

Emotional Intelligence & Leadership
Research shows that the successful leadership correlates strongly with high Emotional Intelligence (EI). While some aspects of and individual's EI may be inherent, an understanding of the key competencies is at the core of developing stronger skills.

What builds great and sustainable organizations are leaders with a high degree of business acumen—specific skills, planning and control—and Emotional Intelligence—methods to keep people motivated and engaged. Leaders who have a sensitivity to relationships and do a good job of building relationships have something beyond business skills that help organizations succeed. They have highly developed, emotionally intelligent behaviours.
