Powerful Emotional Intelligence techniques to embrace compassion and connect with others
Description
Emotional intelligence (EI) is a term that has gained widespread recognition in recent years as an increasing number of individuals and organisations recognise its importance in personal and professional development. EI refers to the ability to identify, understand, and manage one’s own emotions and to understand and influence the feelings of others.
