EQ ADVANT-EDGE CORPORATE COURSES
EQ/LEADERSHIP COURSES
Emotional Quotient (EQ) or Emotional Intelligence is a way of describing our “human effectiveness” and is important as it speaks for our ability to succeed in life. Each course will be offered by our dynamic trainers, who all have a back-ground in psychology. EQ-Advant-Edge-Training-CC is a level 4 BBBEE contributorWHAT IS EQ?
EQ is a concept that is becoming more and more popular throughout the world today. It refers to our Emotional Quotient, which in turn defines our level of ability to interact successfully with others. Howard Gardener, one of the most notable theorists on intelligence states: “Your EQ is the level of your ability to understand other people, what motivates them and how to work cooperatively with them,”WHO ARE WE?
EQ-Advant-Edge-Training-CC was formed in 2010 in reaction to a recognised growing need for increased emotional intelligence and leadership skills for people in different organizations, as a result of increased stress and performance expectations.As D. Goldman, the father of multiple intelligence theory has stated in his research, IQ will get you through school but EQ will help you lead a successful life. The program has shown to increase performance in the business and working context, as well as on a personal level, resulting in increased self-esteem, decision making, mature reactions and communication skills just to name a few.
Our EQ course has been extensively developed after much research into relevant professional literature, interviews with various collaborating professionals and from our own experience with clients of the identified age-group.
The information that follows will give you better insight into how the course works.
