Consulting & Training
To accomplish our goals, we must have a clear vision; but even more importantly, we must develop the ability to communicate that vision effectively. As managers or leaders, we are often focused on the details of project development and technical execution, but unfortunately neglect to consider the human element, which is so critical to our ultimate success. Furthermore, feelings of overwhelm or frustration, so common when working under pressure or dealing with the challenges of a task at hand, can affect our decisions and actions. The mismanagement of such emotions can be costly.
Many of us received mixed messages about the role that emotions play in the workplace. On one hand, we’re taught to value our intellect and downplay our feelings, but on the other hand, our effectiveness depends in large part on how well we manage our emotions. The measurement of a company’s success is no longer based solely on the quality of their product, but on its employees’ commitment and performance as well as its customers’ satisfaction and loyalty.
As an executive, you are faced with many decisions that can impact your team and your company’s bottom line. Partnering with a coach can help you gain the insight and objectivity you need to improve your performance and communication, and reach new level of personal and professional success.
Achieving emotional mastery will position you at the control panel of your thoughts and feelings. You will learn to:
• Become more productive in prioritizing work and maintaining your focus
• Manage anxiety and self-doubt
• Learn to better collaborate and manage conflict
• Create more presence and credibility
• Learn how to challenge assumptions and expand your perception of any situation
• Monitor and adapt your own emotions and behaviors for the benefit of yourself, your team and your department
• Influence others and create sustainable results
TEAM BUILDING TRAININGS
Emotional intelligence and emotional management effects more than your company’s bottom line; it delivers a sense of control and peace of mind. To thrive in business (and in life) we have to invest in developing emotional mastery. Offered in a half-day or a full-day setting, team building workshops provide an opportunity to practice this cutting-edge skill.
1. Emotional Intelligence 101: Making Sense of Emotions
In a safe and interactive environment, participants will gain clarity and confidence as they learn to relate to emotions (your own and those of others) with awareness and choice. You will learn techniques for identifying the full range of your emotions, deciphering emotional messages, and using your feelings deliberately to stimulate productive behavior. This workshop will help you understand the hidden messages of uncomfortable emotions – such as stress and frustration – and sharpen your emotional intelligence to ensure top performance.
2. Emotional Fitness: Emotional Intelligence Applied
Dealing with stressful deadlines, difficult colleagues and cranky supervisors while keeping your professional and personal life in balance requires some emotional finesse. The emotional fitness exercises you’ll learn in this workshop equip you with the essential skills and competencies not only to manage your emotions but to master them. Learn how to operate the control panel of your life so that you can successfully meet the demands that are in front of you – and keep moving ahead on the things that matter most to you.
3. Emotional Mastery: Whole-Brain Decision-Making
There’s nothing more valuable than to be able to communicate with clarity and effectiveness. Many people believe thinking and feeling are two mutually exclusive human functions, but recent scientific research reveals that thinking and feeling are not only intertwined; they are interdependent and operate in concert with each other. In this workshop, you’ll discover innovative, easy-to-learn techniques for making left-brain/right-brain decisions that are smart, timely and effective. Gain insights into the complex process of decision making and learn new strategies to be an effective communicator, manager and leader.All programs are designed to provide a better understanding of the role emotions play in our thinking and decision-making. Although each workshop focuses on developing specific emotional intelligence skills, all of them can be customized to meet the unique needs of your team.
