Does conflict get you down? Does anger get you upset? Does fear stress you out? These emotions can work to our advantage if we use emotional intelligence. This seminar takes a close look at emotionally-charged situations and tells you exactly what to do with them. We will be looking at five different ways of handling conflict, all of which are good when matched to the right situation. We will be looking at five ways of handling anger, two of which are good, and three of which will get you in a world of trouble. We will talk about "feeling the fear and doing it anyway." You will leave this class with a much greater sense of control over your life.

Unlike IQ or other traditional measured of intelligence, EI can be developed and dramatically increased. This seminar will focus on mastering the following core competencies of emotional intelligence: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management. Through self-assessments and directed activities, you will learn about these core competencies and gain an awareness of your personal opportunities to strengthen your individual skills and behaviors.
