Event Overview

In this workshop, you learn the basic emotional intelligence skills that are the most helpful when dealing with conflict or stressful situations. By covering and practicing how to best respond in stressful situations, you learn about your own stress response style, how and when to be assertive, and learn a technique to help you keep your emotional control when someone pushes your buttons.

If you regularly need to respond when the situation is difficult or is based in conflict, come learn the steps of greater self-awareness and emotional regulation to give you a stronger set of tools when those situations occur.

In this workshop, you will learn:

* how to identify and work with your emotional triggers

* how gender plays a role in how your assertiveness is perceived or rewarded

* the difference between passive, assertive, and aggressive

* how to formulate the most appropriate response when emotionally triggered

* how to consciously choose when to be passive, assertive, or aggressive

* how to use specific EI techniques to create better responses when pushed or highly stressed

* how to use conflict to create your best self

After class, you are directed toward further resources to continue the work you started.

Emotional Intelligence Skills: Emotional Regulation, Self-Awareness, Other Awareness, Social Awareness, Assertiveness

    The class allows you to recognize your triggers and helps you discover healthy ways to respond to stressful situations. I realized how often I communicate indirectly with people, and have already started utilizing the lessons from this workshop. The instructor taught us how to be direct without having to be too nice or explaining yourself. Filtod is friendly and genuine, and does a spectacular job connecting with his students.

    What I enjoyed most about this class was that it put into process something I've long been trying to figure out how to do. Taking ownership of actions and clear direction on how to do that is an important skill that I need to improve my work life and stress levels. This class gave me the tools to start on that journey immediately and I'm grateful for it.

    This class allowed me not only to learn about how to identify triggers, but also gave me the tools to handle them on a daily basis. It provided a great deal of personal introspection as to how I can improve my skills, and what skills I already had that work.
