Did you know? …almost 75% of organizational issues are relational, as opposed to technical. It’s people problems. And for better or worse, people are driven by emotions – and influenced by their own and others’ emotional intelligence.¹

I help organizations with recurrent people and communication headaches resolve them while increasing engagement, trust, and openness. Does that sound like something you’d be interested in?

If people and communication issues are effecting morale, culture, and your bottom line, let’s talk.

Emotional Intelligence Consulting

What can you expect?

YES! It can be effective and fun. I create safe, playful, and curiosity-focused environments and facilitate instructor-led, participant-centered sessions. By inviting in a growth mindset and bringing multiple modalities of information to accommodate diverse learning styles, I can create transformational and inclusive experiences for every member of your team.

Sample Emotional Intelligence (EQ) Consulting topics for Organizations

EQ for Emotional Management

In EQ for Emotional Management, you will learn, practice, and understand the Foundations of Emotional Intelligence – Self-Awareness, Regulation, Motivation, Empathy, and Social Skill. You will come away with awareness of your own blocks to Emotional Intelligence and what your triggers are – along with practical steps to resolve them. You will end with developing Active Listening, along with increasing your Empathy and Confidence in the process. Bonus! Comes with Emotional Intelligence Assessment. 

EQ for Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction

Do you experience stress, overwhelm, or exhaustion? Then this is for you! We look what happens in our bodies and emotions under stress. Next, we build our own definitions of resilience. We’ll leverage our resilience and EQ to overcome obstacles to build healthy boundaries and recuperative spaces. Last, we will look at the common components, warning signs, and how to recover from the growing epidemic of Burnout. 

EQ For Employee Engagement + Relationship 

This course is designed for anyone who wants to more than a paycheck from where they spend the majority of their time. We start by harnessing the power of Emotional Intelligence to create more bandwidth for empathy and trust in relationships. We’ll then step back to apply a framework to identify the support system you need to thrive – at work and home.  And because so much of us are dedicated to helping others – as parents, managers, caregivers, and community members, we’ll look at the growing prevalence of Compassion Fatigue and how to address it. We’ll practice our effective communication skills through a confidence-building game. Last, we will look at a common communication “trap” called the Drama Triangle and put all or our tools together to assert healthy boundaries.
