About the Course
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.

“How can you get the best performance from yourself and others?”

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:
- The Bad past. Which tends to create emotions of anger and upset
- 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
Let us look at some examples of what negative language some people have to put up with at work:
- Our Fail-Safe-Method of handling any form of negative emotion inducing language
- How to manage the person who uses words as weapons.
The course content was great, so helpful, giving me new skills and how to plan to succeed. The trainer explained very well, clear and concise with good advice and training I won't forget. Thank you.

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.

The Training Method
The training method follows this general pattern - the training is very interactive and interesting:
- The trainer gives a clear explanation of the point in question with specific examples.
- Then, the delegates practice by doing an exercise with each other.
- The delegates practice by doing an exercise with the trainer.
- All points are supported with full written notes to take away.
- 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!
Training course content was excellent, very informative. Gave more tools to adopt and implement for the great good and my own personal development. Trainers presentation was excellent and fun.

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.
- Controlling the focus of your mind
- Controlling the focus of your conversations
- Controlling the state of your physical body during stressful times
- Controlling your actions
- Understanding your emotional reactions to events
- Controlling your interactions with other people, especially during tough times
- 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.
View this page on your computer to complete the quiz!
Score yourself out of 10 for each of the following questions. With 10 representing excellence and 0 representing terrible.
1. Controlling the focus of your mind
To what degree do you consciously think about the content of your own mind? Do you consciously think about your thought processes, or do you just allow yourself to think whatever “pops into your head” without much self-analysis, revision, or control?
(Score high for more self-analysis and lower for less self-analysis)
2. Controlling the focus of your conversations
In a similar way, to what degree are you aware of the affects your words have on the emotions of others? Do you remain conscious of how the content of your conversations may affect how others feel, or do you tend to say things without considering the likely impact on the emotions of others?
(Score higher for emotional sensitivity and lower for being brutally honest)
3. Controlling the state of your physical body
To what degree are you aware of your physical reactions to emotional situations. Do you ever consciously control your physical responses to stressful situations or do primitive, fight or flight instinctive reactions kick-in and take over your responses?
(Score higher for self-control and lower for instinctive responses)
4. Controlling your actions
To what degree do you have self-discipline. Can you make yourself do what you don’t want to do? Can you STOP yourself doing what you really WANT to do, but which you know may be negative in their effects? Or do you tend to do and say things according to your mood in the moment, and then have to mop up the mess later?
(Score higher for self-discipline and lower for instinctive actions)
5. Understanding your emotional reactions to events
To what degree are you in control of how you feel today. Can you control how you feel on any particular day? Are you able to make yourself happy, from the inside, out?
Or are your emotional states more likely to be determined by how things turn out for you today; or by how other people treat you, or what they say to you?
(Score higher for being self-determined, and lower for being determined by others)
6. Controlling your interactions with other people especially during tough times
Are you able to deal with difficult people in a rational, calm and positive manner? Or are there certain people who you find very difficult to deal with.
(Score higher for being able to handle difficult people with ease, and score lower for having certain types who tend to upset your equilibrium)
7. Applying the principles of emotional intelligence skillfully to others
To what degree are you able to manage the emotions of other people? Do you know how to inspire people towards the positive emotions? Are you able to raise people’s spirits, whenever you want to, by employing certain methods?
Or do you find managing other people’s emotions a very difficult or even an impossible task?
(Score higher if you find this easy, or score lower if you find this difficult)
