How do you lead well when pressure, uncertainty or conflict make every interaction matter more?
Teams take their cues from how leaders listen, respond and handle difficult conversations. This course develops the self-awareness, empathy and communication skills that help leaders build trust, address tension early and create the conditions for people to do their best work.

What you’ll be better able to do
- Strengthen the self-awareness, self-regulation and empathy that build trust and influence at work, based on Daniel Goleman's emotional intelligence framework.
- Notice how your emotions and habitual patterns shape the way others see you.
- Stay steady under pressure and respond with choice rather than reflex, based on Susan David's emotional agility approach.
- Listen beyond what is said to understand colleagues' needs, intentions and concerns.
Participants leave with greater self-awareness of how their emotions, behaviours, and communication shape the trust and influence they have at work. They take away practical tools for intentionally building emotional capital and using it to strengthen relationships, communicate with greater impact and influence others.

How you’ll learn
After shorter input sessions covering relevant research, frameworks, and background, participants spend the majority of the time in reflection, discussion, and practice, working with real examples from their own work.
Evidence & methodology
Facilitated input, reflection, practical communication work, peer discussion and application to everyday work relationships.
The course is grounded in established research on emotional intelligence, drawing on Daniel Goleman's work on EI at work and Paul Zak's research on the neuroscience of trust, alongside Stephen Covey's concept of the emotional bank account. Additionally, the course is built on Susan David's work on emotional agility and Tasha Eurich's research on the importance of self-awareness in the workplace.

- Managers, team leads and project leads.
- Professionals working cross-functionally, with clients or in teams where trust matters.
