Event description


ECD Emotional Leadership Development Certification - 1 Day Course

Become a Certified Emotional Culture Deck Leadership Practitioner!  This course is designed to enhance leadership development by equipping leaders with the tools to understand and manage emotional drivers and dynamics for themselves, their people and teams.

The course focuses on developing emotionally aware leaders who can effectively grow positive workplace cultures.  Participants will actively engage in practical activities that promote self awareness and emotional literacy along with team cohesion, all whilst using the Emotional Culture Deck cards and frameworks.  This allows leaders to better understand and harness the power of emotions to foster more dynamic and responsive workplaces.

"Emotional culture is shaped by how all employees—from the highest echelons to the front lines—comport themselves day in and day out. But it’s up to senior leaders to establish which emotions will help the organization thrive, model those emotions, and reward others for doing the same. Companies in which they do this have a lot to gain." – Sigal Barsade & Olivia O'Neil, Manage Your Emotional Culture
