Emotional Intelligence in the Workplace
(brown bag luncheon)
All Campus Student Lounge-DHH
Description:
No matter what your role is at the university, each of you have the capacity
to demonstrate leadership. From relationships to "official"
responsibilities, we play a vital role in determining what happens. Understanding
the powerful role that emotions play in the leadership equation sets apart
effective leadership from the rest. Realizing that we all have the capacity
for enhancing our emotional intelligence opens up new avenues for exploring
our own leadership capacity, as well as our ability to work effectively
with others.

Emotional Intelligence and You—Implications &
Applications
Alumni Lounge - MUB
Description:
Student Affairs professionals must be adept at working well with others;
however, making this happen is often easier said than done. Emotional
intelligence provides a framework for professional and leadership development
that student affairs professionals will recognize as immediately relevant.
The specific skills of emotional intelligence provide a wealth of strategies
to improve individual and team effectiveness. This professional development
opportunity will provide you with additional insight into your own emotional
intelligence and how to enhance your effectiveness on the job.
