Self Awareness
Self-Regulation
Motivation

Social Skills
This program will include an Emotional Quotient (EQ) assessment* that will be taken by each attendee in advance of the program and measures emotional intelligence, or your ability to sense, understand and effectively apply the power and acumen of emotions to facilitate high levels of collaboration and productivity.
*Attendees will receive a link prior to the program to complete this included assessment.
With EQ training, your employees will develop the skills and knowledge to better understand your customers, how to manage their expectations, and ultimately meet their needs.
