Who is the course for?
This course is ideal for leaders who not only want to effectively manage their own emotions but also want to learn techniques that will help them handle the emotions of others.
Course description
In a typical workday, you may encounter situations that spark a variety of emotions, such as disagreements over decisions, frustration that someone is not taking you seriously, disappointment over not getting a promotion, or maybe complete dissatisfaction with your job. It is important to know when and how to express your emotions, and when to keep them in check. Outbursts, passive-aggressive behavior, or detachment are never responsible ways to handle emotions at work. This course is designed to give you the tools you need to recognize your emotional triggers, control your emotional and physical responses, and handle your response to others’ emotions. As a result, you will be able to communicate more effectively with supervisors and coworkers, channel negative energy into more positive and productive activities, and increase your emotional intelligence.
Completing this course will help you
Recognize your emotional triggers and the ART model to help shift your emotional state.
Determine strategies that replace emotional outbursts with productive confrontations.
Determine techniques to manage your response to the emotional outbursts and needs of others.
