Introduction

Leadership skills are the strengths and abilities individuals demonstrate that help to oversee processes, guide initiatives and steer their employees toward the achievement of goals.
Leadership skills are an essential component in positioning executives to make thoughtful decisions about their organization’s mission and goals, and properly allocate resources to achieve those directives. Valuable leadership skills include the ability to delegate, inspire and communicate effectively. Other leadership traits include honesty, confidence, commitment and creativity. To be an effective leader, a person should possess certain skills that can steer and motivate the team members toward success.

Emotional intelligence (EI) is a critical component of effective leadership. It’s the ability to recognize, control, and express emotions in yourself, others, and groups. Leaders with high EI are better able to: 

• Build trust: EI helps leaders create trusting relationships with their employees. 

• Communicate: EI helps leaders communicate effectively with their teams. 

• Resolve conflict: EI helps leaders resolve conflicts within their teams. 

• Make decisions: EI helps leaders consider the impact of their choices on team morale and relationships. 

• Inspire and motivate: EI helps leaders inspire and motivate their teams. 

• Manage relationships: EI helps leaders manage interpersonal relationships and foster positive team dynamics. 

• Understand employees: EI helps leaders understand the emotions and motivations of their employees                        
•  This two days workshop  will walk the participants through the nitty gritty of Leadership and Emotional Intelligence.
