OUR NEWEST SEMINAR COMING IN APRIL!
In this class, we will explore the concept of Emotional Intelligence (EQ) using Reuven Bar-On’s model of Emotional Intelligence: EQ-i 2.0. By developing a greater understanding of your own EQ strengths and opportunities, you will be able to apply them to your work as a career practitioner.
The class is interactive and includes online discussions with other career practitioners, as well as a podcast to introduce the EQ-i 2.0 model. You will take active steps to “boost” your own Emotional Intelligence, and also recognize those elements in others.
Finally, you will describe how you will integrate Emotional Intelligence into your career development work. Short readings and videos will be provided as part of the course.

Bonus! For an additional $125, you may take the EQ-i 2.0 assessment and receive a half hour coaching appointment with Edythe. The assessment alone – which includes 20 pages of personalized data – is valued at $250+.
