Here is the question we want to answer:
“How can you get the best performance from yourself and others?”

The emotional management cycle

Your emotions tend to show up in your external results.

The process looks like this.

• How negative emotions tend to create negative results.
• How positive emotions tend to create positive results.

Harness the Power of Great Expectations.

How to use the emotional management cycle to your advantage.

Conversation control

Learn to take control of the content of your thoughts and conversations and direct them away from too much talking about:

1. The Bad past. Which tends to create emotions of anger and upset
2. The Bad future. Which tends to create emotions of fear anxiousness upset and and worry

Target your conversation onto a BETTER FUTURE; which will tend to create emotions of optimism, enthusiasm, motivation and energy.

How to identify the creation of negative emotions at work

8 Part SMART

Positive emotions are triggered most easily by thinking about our goals for the future.

Therefore, we need to ask people what are their goals for the future.

The role of an emotional manager is to help the team to feel able to achieve goals, the first skill of the leader is to properly set and communicate a valuable goal.

Communication and Body language.

Like it or not, people do judge you partly on appearance.

What they see, is what you’ll get.

Impression management: How you APPEAR to be, will partly determine how you are received.

Posture. Appearance. Touch. Eye contact. Hand and arm gestures. Facial expression. Orientation. Proximity. Scent. Accessories.

Reframe a negative situation into a positive situation.

There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so

Change the meaning of an event and you will change how people feel about it.

How to change the meaning of an event.

Change the focus of a conversation onto more productive paths.

The Course Training Method

The training method follows this general pattern - the training is very interactive and interesting:

1. The trainer gives a clear explanation of the point in question with specific examples.
2. Then, the delegates practice by doing an exercise with each other.
3. The delegates practice by doing an exercise with the trainer.
4. All points are supported with full written notes to take away.
5. Delegates are asked to write down an associated action, for each point made.
   (At the end of the day, we have about twenty such actions, from which the delegates choose six which are the most personally meaningful).

Note: we do not believe in placing people in any situation of embarrassment by demanding that they 'perform' in front of the whole group. So you can relax: come on this course and be at ease; ready to learn new skills!

Emotional Intelligence (EQ) Training Course Summary

Emotional intelligence (EQ) training is about understanding why people do what they do, by understanding how their emotions affect their performance.

Our performance is strongly affected by how we feel, emotionally.

• Positive emotions; optimism, enthusiasm, commitment and confidence, tend to produce positive results
• Negative emotions: anger, upset, worry, anxiety, stress, tend to produce negative results

We want to use that understanding to improve the way we think, talk, act, and respond to various work situations.

Our aim is to improve performance by improving our mode of thinking, feeling, communicating, acting and reacting to events.

Emotional Intelligence (EQ) Training Course Quiz

Emotional intelligence (EI) or emotional quotient (EQ) is the art of controlling the focus of your mind, the physical state of your body, and your actions, so as to create the optimum emotional responses, which are appropriate to the circumstances that face you.

That means you can think of emotional intelligence (EQ) as containing the following seven subsets skills.

1. Controlling the focus of your mind
2. Controlling the focus of your conversations
3. Controlling the state of your physical body during stressful times
4. Controlling your actions
5. Understanding your emotional reactions to events
6. Controlling your interactions with other people, especially during tough times
7. Applying the principles of emotional intelligence skilfully to others

Before we get into the material, let us do a quick questionnaire that opens the door on each of these seven subsets.
