Topic:  Transformation Super Powers: EQ and the Power of Critical Thinking

The kryptonite that prevents organizations from moving past their programming is a culture that does not demand and value emotional intelligence (EQ) and critical thinking skills partnered with personal accountability.  It takes a certain measure of bravery or super power to break through an organization and establish a culture of expectation and accountability that demands EQ and critical thinking skills.  This presentation looks at how these skills promote transformation, what EQ and critical thinking skills are and how to assess them personally, within your team and within an organization.   The presentation will look at what steps are required to promote EQ and critical thinking as a skill set and how to implement that process in your organization.   The presentation will use practical tools, audience participation and multi-visual resources to keep everyone engaged in the conversation.

This program will provide attendees the following learning objectives:

• Understand what EQ and critical thinking are and recognize the skill sets
• Find the ways that EQ and critical thinking can inspire leadership to transform an organization
• Evaluate your personal EQ and critical thinking skills
