Build Authentic Relationships using Emotional Intelligence

Building relationships is something that we all do having learnt these skills from birth. Developing healthy relationships as adults means building on these skills and refining them so that we can adapt around others' needs as well as our own. We interact with other people in many different ways - some of these interactions are transient whilst some of these interactions are deep and meaningful.

Building healthy interpersonal relationships is one of the ways that you use your emotional intelligence. The course covers the awareness and action part of how you interact with others in the outer world. This course is a stand alone course for anyone interested in understanding themselves better and communicating with other people with more impact.

It forms part of a comprehensive course that explores emotional intelligence in more depth. Authentic relationships are built around mutual understanding that involves empathy, trust and an acceptance of each other's values. Some disagreement and conflict will be inevitable as this is where learning, creativity and understanding occurs.

It is not that conflict occurs that is the issue, it is how it is managed. In this course, we will explore the way that you build relationships using empathy, how you develop trust, manage conflict and work within ethical boundaries. The course covers Social Interaction Styles looking at the behaviours of Drivers, Expressives, Amiables and Analyticals and how these work together in teams.
