    This enrichment program will help you better understand your emotions and effectively develop your emotional intelligence to enhance success.

    Emotional intelligence, also called EQ, is the ability to be aware of and to manage emotions and relationships. It's a pivotal factor in professional and personal success. IQ will get you in the door, but it's your EQ — your ability to connect with others and manage the emotions of yourself and others — that will determine how successful you are in life. When we look at the truly extraordinary people who inspire and make a difference, you'll see they connect with people at a personal and emotional level. What differentiated them was not their IQ but their EQ — their emotional intelligence. This enrichment program will help you better understand your emotions and effectively develop your emotional intelligence to enhance success. 

    Objectives: 

    • Recognize what emotional intelligence means.
    • Identify ways to make a conscious decision to act instead of reacting. 
    • Demonstrate how to use emotional intelligence competencies effectively. 
    • Recognize how feelings, reactions and emotions affect work relationships. 
    • Apply skills to effectively work with different personalities and communication styles.

    Having an understanding and connection to one’s emotions and how to manage emotional reactions plays a significant role in a person’s effectiveness. This presentation will increase the legal manager’s understanding of emotional intelligence (EI), what it is, how emotions define how we show up at work, and the implications of those emotions for others.

    image

    Keeping up with lawyers requires intense time and energy and a special kind of “intelligence.” Like our lawyers, we earn degrees and certifications, acquire and refine technical skills, and hope to be administrative and management experts. Being smart is important, but it is not all one needs to be successful and fulfilled. Having an understanding and connection to one’s emotions and how to manage emotional reactions plays a significant role in a person’s effectiveness. This presentation will increase the legal manager’s understanding of emotional intelligence (EI), what it is, how emotions define how we show up at work, and the implications of those emotions for others. 

    Objectives: 

    • Review the Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i2.0), the first scientifically validated and most widely used emotional intelligence assessment in the world. 
    • Identify areas for EQ development so legal managers can immediately begin strategies to improve in those areas. 
    • Describe how legal managers can leverage strengths to maximize effectiveness in daily tasks. 
    • Discuss how emotional intelligence plays a significant role in collaboration, management, leadership effectiveness and team dynamics.
