An engaging two-day program where participants develop Emotional Intelligence (EQ) to increase their effectiveness at the "people side" of leadership. The course features a unique approach to learning that has been effective for hundreds of professionals from six continents. The methodology comes from a curriculum called Self-Science, identified in Daniel Goleman's 1995 best-selling book, Emotional Intelligence, as one of two models for teaching EQ. This approach is research-based, time-tested, and proven effective.
Both managers and leaders are critical to the success of organizations. In an era of rapid change and complexity, organizations are finding they need more leaders who can engage staff to take responsibility for creating results for themselves, their teams and the organization. Most managers have a high level of expertise on the technical side of their work, but few have substantial training in the human side of the job. Emotional intelligence provides powerful insights and tools essential for transforming managers into leaders.
Emotional Intelligence (or EQ) is the capacity to effectively use emotions, and it's a key differentiating factor of successful leaders. Why? Because relationships are at the heart of workplace performance, and EQ skills are what makes effective relationships thrive. Few training programs or workshops have the potential to make a significant difference in how participants perform on the job. This training program can.
Studies vary, but all indicate that emotional competence accounts from 70 to 80% of the difference in leadership success. Maybe that's why thought leaders like Jack Welch (past CEO of GE) and Warren Bennis (leadership authority and author) and hundreds of others all agree:
"No doubt emotional intelligence is more rare than book smarts, but in my experience it is actually more important in making a leader."
Jack Welch
"In the fields I have studied, emotional intelligence is much more powerful than IQ in determining who emerges as a leader. IQ is a threshold competence. You need it, but it doesn't make you a star. Emotional intelligence can."
Warren Bennis Author of 'Becoming A Leader'

"I attended the course Leading with Social & Emotional Intelligence conducted by Granville D'Souza. To simply sum it up, EXCELLENT! Granville is a very friendly, knowledgeable and engaging speaker that is full of energy and enthusiasm. I learn a lot about how the mind and the heart works, the emotional part of us, conquering fears and frustration. It is really cool! Gran parted his experience and training to us and with some practice, it has help me look at issues, cases, situations from a very different angle, thus enabling conflicts to be resolved much easier and more amicable. The course is a real eye opener, sort of thinking outside the box; compared to many other courses I have attended that tries to teach the typical method of resolving issues, this course is far superior to others and I would be keen for students to know this. The techniques to improve approachability, team building and positive reinforcements are excellent and I have recommended my leads to take advantage of this highly valued learning experience."
