The Emotional Intelligence in Leadership program is offered online and on-campus. Class meets for 3.5 hours, once a week for four consecutive weeks. Lessons will consist of group discussions, reflective exercises, activities, and a 360-degree emotional intelligence assessment.
You will use the assessment to receive and analyze feedback about your own emotional intelligence as well as tips and tactics for improving that emotional intelligence both in yourself and others.
Important Note:
As part of the 360-degree self-assessment you will need to solicit feedback from at least three colleagues, such as managers, peers, and direct reports. The evaluation will take both you and your participating colleagues approximately 30 minutes to complete. Because the self-assessment is a central theme of the program, participants must complete the survey at least five business days before the program start date.
Incompletion of the assessment will severely impact your class experience during the program. You are strongly encouraged to complete the assessment as soon as you receive detailed instructions about the survey.
