According to researcher and author Daniel Goleman, the greatest difference between average and high performing individuals can be attributed to competencies related to social and emotional intelligence. As employees move up in the organization, they increasingly require skills such as listening, showing empathy, working collaboratively, motivating and inspiring others, giving and receiving constructive feedback, etc. In this high-energy, interactive seminar, you'll practice your skills in these areas, with emphasis on building environments of trust, collaboration and engagement; understanding what triggers fear and resistance in people; reducing defensive behavior; releasing productive energy in others; and more.

The combination of technical expertise with personal and relational management skills results in effective leaders, teams and individuals. As people develop these skills they become more adept at working together and eliminating the interpersonal problems that undermine high performance.
