Improving awareness of Emotional Intelligence enables people to work smarter and perform better. DCo design bespoke programmes that increase this vital skill.
The following approaches are often requested to improve emotional intelligence levels and increase performance:
Having leaders and managers who understand and demonstrate emotional intelligence provides significant value to an organisation. We are often asked to develop leadership or management programmes that include a focus on improving the emotional intelligence of individuals and teams.
We specialise in addressing how emotional intelligence plays a part in how individuals lead themselves, lead others and lead the organisation. Programmes increase self awareness of emotional intelligence levels, increase ability to build effective relationships and make strategic decisions.
The organisational benefits include having managers and leaders with the right attitude for successful and emotional intelligent leadership and a greater understanding of its importance in the work place.
One-to-one coaching sessions are a powerful way to build personal and professional skills. DCo combine emotional intelligence development with coaching interventions when the development required is inline with the benefits that are needed.
Coaching for improved emotional intelligence includes a psychometric assessment of current emotional intelligence levels and the support of our experienced Leadership Coach – Mike Hopkins.
