Emotional Intelligence

Presented by Massasoit Community College

We all like to think that we, and our colleagues, are logical beings who behave in rational ways but is this really the case? Our emotions always influence and occasionally override our intellect. This workshop will provide the tools for participants to understand Emotional Intelligence; begin to use it to their advantage; and develop it further. Whether you are hiring someone, working to help colleagues develop valuable job skills or are trying to move ahead in your career, understanding Emotional Intelligence offers you a unique view of human interaction and provides insight into how to use your strengths to your advantage.
