Emotional Intelligence Workshop
Wednesaday, May 29 | 3:00聽pm 鈥� 6:00 pm

Research in social psychology has revealed that the smartest people are also the most successful and the most fulfilled in life. Intellectual intelligence (IQ) isn鈥檛 sufficient on its own to become successful in life. IQ can help you get into the best university but EQ, will enable you to better manage stress and emotions during exam periods. Therefore, a higher EQ will lead to improvements in your performance at work (i.e. stand out as a strong candidate during a job interview), your physical and mental health (i.e. reducing the likelihood of serious health and mental health problems), and your personal relationships (i.e. to better manage your emotions and to avoid mood swings which can be detrimental to forging significant relationships). By understanding your emotions and how to control them, you will be better able to adequately express how you feel and also understand how others are feeling. EQ will allow you to become a more efficient communicator and hence, to develop stronger relationships, both at work as well as in your personal life.
