Optimize People and Process. Be More Effective.
Whether you are working in a hybrid, virtual or onsite environment, learning to develop your interactions so that they achieve your desired outcomes is what emotional intelligence helps you do. Teams cannot flourish and you can’t keep up with the incessant pace without strong business relationships built on trust and understanding.
Emotional Intelligence (EI) competencies help you and your team reach peak efficiency and consistent performance.
Emotional intelligence is the foundation of effective workplace performance and productivity. Though EI was once an elusive and mysterious concept, emotional intelligence training breaks it down into an integrated set of skills. We combine engaging experiences, assessments, coaching and training to facilitate a highly effective, agile, and resilient organization.
Emotional Intelligence training with Work Smart Consulting focuses on the practical and immediate application of EI concepts, so you spend less time learning, and more time doing. We engage you in the process so you can apply these skills, including self-awareness, healthy communication, emotional agility, decision making under pressure and stress management.
EI is the antidote to unchecked stress and pressure so you activate resilience and optimism which furthers your impact and influence as a leader.
Emotional intelligence is the ability to consistently achieve your goalsby managing how you show up.
What Is Emotional Intelligence?
Emotional intelligence (EI) is your ability to manage how you show up so you consistently achieve your goals. The micro-skills within EI include:
- The ability to know what is going on internally and redirecting those impulses to serve your desired aim or goal.
- The ability to help others redirect their emotions and internal reactions and stay focused on this goal. (This includes managing conflict, not shutting it down or ignoring it.)
- Agility to pivot and adapt as needed in order to stay focused on main goal.
- Awareness of how one is impacting others, and the environment, in order to achieve one’s desired goal.
Strong emotional intelligence (EI) is a defining factor in one’s ability to consistently achieve results. Develop strong leaders known for results and collaboration in the workplace.

The Link Between Emotional Intelligence and Leadership
Everyone has EI skills, but due to increased pressure and accelerated change, there is a failure to mobilize it. You cannot outperform if you are distracted by what is happening internally. Emotions, negativity, and the limited perspective that accompanies the primitive survival stress reaction limits one’s leadership impact.
Emotionally intelligent leaders understand that how they show up influences those around them and have strategies in place to manage emotions and their stress triggers from people, places and situations.
The good news is that these skills can be learned! You have heard the saying, “Great leaders are made, not born,” this is because great leaders continue their development which strengthens their emotional intelligence.

Utilizing Emotional Intelligence in the Workplace
There is greater interest in the concept and value of emotional intelligence (EI) as the uncertainty and disruption in the world wreaks havoc in the workplace. EI is still the single biggest predictor of successful leadership.
Your ability to engage emotional intelligence is a critical factor for projecting one’s success in life. The truth is the competencies with the skillset of EI are essential for leaders at all levels in the workplace. This is even more true today in this Digital Age, with frequent disruption and demands.
As the interface with technology escalates, emotional intelligence, because of the need for agility and resilience, is now a highly-coveted workplace skill. According to a recent survey of hiring managers, 75 percent of hiring managers place an employee’s EI as a top factor in the hiring decision.
People with highly developed emotional intelligence:
- Make better decisions
- Solve problems effectively and efficiently
- Resolve conflicts more quickly and with positive outcomes
- Remain calm under pressure
- Absorb, reflect, and respond to constructive criticism
People with undeveloped emotional intelligence:
- Do not take responsibility for their errors
- Play the role of the victim
- Have passive-aggressive or hostile communication skills
- Dismiss criticism directed towards them
- Are overly critical of others
Do not wait and just “hope” your leaders develop this on their own. Schedule a complimentary call and let’s discuss your challenges and goals.
