Business outcomes rest on good decisions made by leaders and teams. If you question how some decisions get made in your organization, either by leaders or in meetings, there may be a lack of emotional intelligence in play. In the absence of emotional intelligence, decisions can be myopic, biased, or made by "group think" with no clear thinking, listening, or examination of data really going on at all. Wrong decisions can damage business opportunities, and choosing the wrong fork in the road can lead to a "death spiral" for the company. This webcast explores aspects of emotional intelligence that can be developed to make sound business decisions. If you lead or participate in a team that has a lot at stake, this webcast is for you!

Three differentiators of the high performance organization correlate strongly with emotional intelligence-emotionally intelligent talent, the nature of the work they do, and the purpose people see in their work. Selecting emotionally intelligent talent (especially for managerial positions), and designing work to encourage creativity both contribute to talent who aspire to a larger shared purpose. This webcast will cover research findings from thousands of organizations on their talent management practices, and showcase those who leverage emotional intelligence to achieve high performance. If you're responsible for organizational effectiveness or talent leadership, this webcast is for you! more »
Leadership is a relationship between those who aspire to lead and those who choose to follow. It's the quality of this relationship that matters most when we're engaged in getting extraordinary things done. Strategies, tactics, skills, and practices are empty without understanding the human aspirations that connect leaders and constituents. A leader-constituent relationship that's characterized by fear and distrust will never, ever produce anything of lasting value. A relationship characterized by mutual respect and confidence will overcome the greatest adversities and leave a legacy of significance.
And because leadership is a relationship, a leader's ultimate success is indisputably linked to their emotional intelligence. In this Webcast, best-selling and award-winning author Jim Kouzes will explore this fundamental truth about leadership and how all of the evidence that he and his coauthor, Barry Posner, have gathered during their over 25 years of research strongly indicate that emotional intelligence is a prerequisite to exemplary leadership.
Here are a few of the key messages, and their EI connections, that Jim will address:

Great leaders inspire us to be at our best and move beyond to achieve break-through performance. Although great leaders talk of strategy and competition, they are in tune with others around them and establish a deep emotional connection called resonance. These leaders' emotional intelligence allows them to create and nurture these resonant relationships. They use their EI as a path to resonant leadership through mindfulness, hope and compassion. Since these are experiences essential to renewal of the human organism at the neurological, hormonal, emotional, and behavioral levels, they are the best antidote to the ravages of chronic stress. This webcast will reveal longitudinal research studies about how coaching with compassion is key to leadership development, and why it is central to your talent's renewal and sustainable improvements.

Enjoyment, engagement, and affiliation enable people in organizations to thrive. What sustains charismatic leaders with optimism, courage and joy to create a talent-driven organization? Does this "soft stuff" make up the hard core of effective leaders? The fields of positive psychology and emotional intelligence have established that leaders who effectively express themselves and relate well to others have an "adversity advantage" because they see opportunities in every challenge, and connect with people's hearts to build shared vision. This webcast will cover the impact of EI competencies such as optimism and resiliency on leadership effectiveness. If you're a leader who wants to tap your talent's passions and coach them to high performance, or if you have responsibility for leadership development, this webcast is for you!
