The Case for Emotional Intelligence Training

The body of research on Emotional Intelligence shows that the most successful people, those who consistently outperform their peers, exhibit more of the skills and traits known as Emotional Intelligence. Who wouldn’t want to employ, promote and hire people destined to be successful? EI training builds on the foundation of these recognized success-factor abilities – those that have the biggest impact on performance. By creating EI awareness and providing skill-development opportunities, you are increasing your organization’s capacity to be successful. An investment in EI training produces immediate and lasting positive results – the marks of a sound investment – including better decision making, increased ability to cope with stress and less conflict – all of which lead to an increase in performance.
