Thrive Thursday #5 Grow Your EQ
At Positive Foundry, we believe when individuals flourish, organizations flourish and we want to help companies succeed while helping every member of the team live their best life! Join us for a series of 6 Thrive Thursdays where we’ll come together to learn new skills, connect with peers around the world for meaningful discussion, and takeaway easy-to-implement practice strategies.
Each 50 minute Thrive Thursday session delivers live training to develop a skill necessary for human flourishing. Together we will explore a concept, dialogue in small groups, and leave each session with a plan to practice our learned skill. Get ready to learn, connect, and practice with leaders from around the globe in these inspiring, energetic, and interactive sessions powered by Positive Foundry. Investing in your personal and team’s well-being helps drive business performance, strengthens relationships, and even improves physical health. You’ll leave feeling refreshed and ready to grow!
Unlike our IQ which is fixed and unchanging over the course of our lives, Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is a skill we can improve with practice. In this interactive Thrive Thursday session, we’ll explore the self-management element of strengthening our EQ. Join us to learn strategies and useful tips for how we can control our impulsive feelings, respond to our emotions in a productive way, and adapt to changing circumstances with greater emotional control.
Benefits of growing your emotional intelligence for you and your team/organisation
- Improve mental health through enhanced self-awareness and regulation
- Identify if emotions are serving you well and how to make changes where needed
- Learn strategies to move from reacting to responding to challenging situations
