Emotional intelligence plays an important role in creating healthier, more supportive workplaces. Explore practical ways to understand and manage emotions at work, communicate with greater empathy, create a positive team environment and support colleagues through challenging experiences, including grief.
Improving emotional intelligence at work: Understanding and managing your emotions
Emotional intelligence—the ability to understand emotions—helps us work well with others, cope with life’s demands, reach our goals, and ultimately have a greater level of insight and satisfaction. Research shows that employees high in emotional intelligence are more satisfied with their jobs, more committed to their organisations, and work more collaboratively.
Communication is a vital part of every job. It helps you solve problems, share information, provide feedback, and work well as part of a team. There's a lot that goes into good communication, whether it's in person, on the phone, or electronically. Fortunately, it's a skill you can learn.
As you experience ups and downs at work, being aware of your emotions — naming them and managing them in a healthy, consistent way — is a vital skill that will help you succeed in a professional environment.
This workshop raises awareness of mental health in the workplace, tackling stigma and myths while exploring stress, anxiety, and depression. Participants gain practical knowledge and confidence to support a mentally healthy and inclusive workplace.
