Why do smart people fail? Why do technically brilliant individuals have trouble managing others and collaborating on a team? What they lack is a critical level of Emotional Intelligence (EI) and the ability to manage theirs and others emotions when they are under pressure.

Whether you are leading a team or want to increase your individual performance, the EI program will teach you the foundational principles and brain science of emotional intelligence. You will become a student of human behaviour: understanding what your brain does under pressure and how that affects your decision making and the impact you have on others. 

Dates: February 23 & 24, 2016
Time: 9:00am - 5:00pm
Location: Canad Inns Polo Park
Cost: Members - $945 + GST
Non-members - $995 + GST
Optional post-program coaching available at an additional cost

Registration deadline is February 14, 2016
*SPACE IS LIMITED TO 24 PARTICIPANTS*
