Why EQ matters for companies/individuals seeking higher performance through diversity:
Imagine for a moment how successful your team would be if they were gender balanced, and what impact this would have on your company’s branding and performance. There is not only a lack of women, but there seems to be a further missing element in the financial services and blockchain industry: The promotion of emotional intelligence. IQ tests can predict how well people will perform in certain situations, such as abstract thinking in science, finance and technology. But there must be more than logic capabilities behind the profile of a successful team.
What makes a team standout and increases its work performance is the combination of logic, intrapersonal and interpersonal intelligence. The way you interact with others and yourself in the workplace results in social attractiveness. The interaction between these intelligences promotes success and higher work performance of teams and companies. Performance depends on many factors, but a better understanding of how our brains store and use information during our daily activities, benefits our self-confidence required to lead teams.
Emotional Intelligence, or EQ, has become a central form of intellect. Once developed, you will keep the unique ability to recognize and handle your own emotions to enhance your team’s and your own professional development.
Skills you will acquire:
ACHIEVING A COMMON GOAL, ACTIVE LISTENING, COLLABORATION, COMMUNICATION, EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE, EMPATHY, FLEXIBILITY, INFLUENCING
