SAVE THE DATE!!June 10, 2014
Paula Fracasso, Professional Business & Life Coach with People Biz, Inc. will present on: Developing Emotional Intelligence Emotional intelligence (often called EQ) is an often misunderstood and misused concept in both the business world and our culture. Emotional intelligence is the ability to relate to emotions in a healthy empowering way, your emotions and others'.
Most of us do not understand our emotions and fall "victim" to thinking emotion is something to control and fear. This leads to unhealthy suppression or an overreaction to the very natural human experience of emotion. In this unhealthy state we judge our emotional climate as good or bad, right or wrong, which leads to an even greater misunderstanding of emotion.
The good news is that unlike behavior style and intelligence level you can actively grow your emotional intelligence. There is no limit to your capacity to grow emotionally. This leads to a richer more enjoyable life, the ability to be satisfied and the ability to live in peace regardless of your circumstance. What you will learn from Paula:
- What is emotional intelligence?
- E-Motion - what is it?
- How do we resist this natural intelligence?
- Simple and easy exercises for creating awareness and deliberately growing your EQ
- The tangible benefits of deliberately working on your growth in this area
