Why EQ Training
Remote working has been around for a while and will continue to prevail as companies try to adapt to working in an increasingly digitized world. Over 60% of global population is currently active on the internet with increasing numbers by the day.
According to the World Economic Forum, 78% of business leaders think hybrid and home-working will have a negative impact on productivity.
Even before the pandemic became a reality, the WHO found that Worldwide, 615 million people suffer from depression and anxiety and cost the global workforce an estimated $1 trillion in lost productivity each year.
Risk for burnout keeps growing with the day as does human error and falling prey to cyber crime. Cyber criminals take advantage of a distracted, fatigued and a stressed out remote workforce. Isolation of staff is considered one of the top concerns for remote working according to latest stats by Infosecurity Europe.
The paradigm of traditional ways of working has changed and cyber security awareness needs to be people centric first and foremost.
But how do we motivate people in an age of disruption?
How do we help employees find meaning and purpose in their work when uncertainty prevails?
How do we help and equip students to navigate the new digital ways of learning at a time where social isolation, unemployment and financial distress are part of their everyday reality?
It’s time to help people develop their EQ Toolbox to help people thrive beyond the disruptions and build new coping mechanisms to overcome life’s challenges, adversity and struggles.
The EQ Toolbox
Emotional Intelligence (EI) is a set of emotional and social skills that influence how we perceive and express ourselves, develop and maintain social relationships, cope with challenges, and use dynamic information in an effective and meaningful way. I work with the scientifically validated markers from the EQ-i 2.0 Model: self-perception, self-expression, interpersonal relations, decision-making, and stress management.
At Thrive with EQ, we work with the scientifically validated EQ-i 2.0 Model. The EQ-i 2.0 model measures a set of emotional and social skills that influence the way we:
- perceive and express ourselves,
- develop and maintain social relationships,
- cope with challenges, and
- use emotional information in an effective and meaningful way.
The EQ-i 2.0 model of emotional intelligence is comprised of fifteen factors across five categories of functioning. These skills, which form the building blocks of abilities such as communication, resilience, and time management, can be mapped theoretically and empirically to job competencies, productivity, academic performance, and other measures of success to help predict and improve functioning.
Who should attend
- Students who struggle with high levels of stress, low levels of resilience, persistent feelings of anxiety, and uncertainty impacting their learning experience and graduation chances significantly.
