"What really matters for success, character, happiness and life long achievements is a definite set of emotional skills - your EQ - not just purely cognitive abilities that are measured by IQ tests.” - Daniel Goleman

This training course is designed to help participants develop self-awareness and improve their own communication skills within the pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals industry. In today’s competitive and challenging workplace, we are not only being assessed on our technical skills, but also on how well we understand and handle ourselves and relate to others - our emotional intelligence. Emotional Intelligence is essential for all the relationships we have - whether with internal colleagues, external bodies such as with obtaining scientific advice, or suppliers - to be maximally effective.

This one-day training course addresses our own Emotional Intelligence (EI) and how we can better understand ourselves and interpret others to communicate and influence even more effectively. This course will provide you with the skills to be more self-aware and choose to manage your reactions. It also gives you the skills to assess others' emotions more effectively and deal with them successfully for enhanced performance.

The course is a highly interactive combination of theory, activities, exercises, and practical applications working on your real-life scenarios so you can develop your learnings for your benefit.

Please note, in order to benefit most from the course, delegates will need to complete two self-assessments and bring their results with them at the beginning of the course.
