Leading with Emotional Intelligence  ... from Rookie to Master


A modular approach to creating your leadership culture from the ‘inside out’


In today’s business environment, leaders can no longer rely on their essential ‘rational’ skills and management processes to deliver results. Today it is crucial that leaders tap into their emotions. By balancing their ‘rational’ leadership with their ‘emotional’ leadership they can create a culture that engages, energises and inspires others and ensures consistent performance.
Leading with Emotional Intelligence  is a modular programme designed to help individuals think, feel and act in a manner that has a positive impact on them and a positive impact on others, thereby enhancing overall performance.
This programme enables leaders (from rising stars to senior board directors) to create:
  • a personal ‘aura’ that others respect, are drawn towards and want to follow
  • a team climate that promotes excellence and enables growth
  • an organisational culture where others want to achieve and sustain high performance.
Our research has shown conclusively that leadership begins with self and the first part of this programme focuses on the inner self. Personal performance relies on high levels of self awareness, is dependent on having and retaining self belief and is enhanced by self regulation and improved self image.
By focusing on the inner self, leaders will be able to
  • recognise and change their physiological and emotional state
  • manage self when under pressure or facing a setback or challenge
  • increase their own energy levels and retain focus on their goal
  • value and exploit their intuitiveness
  • apply their beliefs and principles with courage and integrity

Subsequent modules will focus on relationships. How leaders tune in to those around them and how they ensure ‘what they say’ and ‘how they say it’ resonates with others.

By focusing on the interpersonal aspects, leaders will be able to

  • recognise and understand what’s going on inside others, and between self and others at a feelings level
  • adapt their behaviour and language to build trust and rapport and gain the commitment of others

Personal and Organisational Benefits

Leading with Emotional Intelligence  benefits both the individual and their organisation; allowing leaders to grow and develop their personal culture, while creating bottom line value through their leadership of others.

Modular Approach

Leading with Emotional Intelligence  is tailored in both content and style to meet the specific needs of its audience from rising stars to senior board directors: individuals, peers or teams. The programme comprises a series of developmental modules focusing on the inner self and interpersonal aspects. Each module is designed to be delivered either as a stand alone topic or as part of an integrated Inspiring Performance programme.

Dynamic and Challenging Methodology

Leading with Emotional Intelligence  lends itself to many varieties of delivery techniques, all of which are personal, practical, and in true Inspiring Performance style; challenging and dynamic. While it is important that emotional intelligence is understood academically, the real benefit comes from the practical development and application in real life situations.

Leading with Emotional Intelligence can be brought to life through:

  • workplace observation • practical workshops • observational drama sessions
  • experiences and visits • masterclasses • one-to-one coaching • action learning groups
  • on-line forums • leadership, team, EI and cultural diagnostics
