Leading Self with Emotional Intelligence

Self-leadership means knowing who you are, what you are capable of and how you can best manage emotions when working with others. Old habits die hard – understanding who you are leads to a stronger ability to create new and empowering habits.

This workshop opens the doors to self-awareness by uncovering how our life events inform who we are today. It provides participants a courageous look into what might be stopping them in adopting and sustaining new behaviours, then provides strategies for overcoming those barriers.
