| 2:30 PM | Grow or Go: Small Changes in Behaviors Reap Big Rewards in our Relationships We all know the saying that in our professional careers we either grow or we 'go' it's impossible to remain static these days. In the past, work on self-development has been sacrificed for the sake of building our brain trusts - our technical skills and credentials. Ironically, though, it is the inner work growing our emotional intelligence that reaps the highest rewards and is a greater predictor of success in business and in life. (attribute this to Daniel Goleman) In this hands-on and lively session participants will increase their emotional intelligence by using a tool to further their self-development. They will gain insights and identify immediate changes they can make in some aspect of the way they show up in life. And these changes will result in increased satisfaction and success in interactions with others at work and in life. Joni H. Minault |
