Global uncertainties, volatile markets, disrupted business landscapes, and shifting priorities generate swirling storms of emotion and stress in workplaces.

As leaders, we are on the frontline, navigating the upheaval caused by heightened emotions under what feels like relentless pressure. As stress levels rise, we often see increased anxiety in ourselves and our team members, wavering focus, and surges in workplace conflict. Our role, as leaders, is to provide guidance and stability, stay the course, and accomplish our objectives. In times like these, emotional intelligence is the most powerful tool we have to navigate these tempests. 

Instructors Dr. Lisa Brooks-Greaux and Bridgitt Haarsgaard have grappled with workplace conflict and stress as leaders and executive consultants. Their whole-person management view recognizes that where we go, so too go our emotions. Together they developed the roadmap shared in this course and have used it to teach countless leaders how to develop the self-awareness necessary to hone their emotional intelligence, become a beacon for their team, and lead with empathy in this complex world.
