Lifting Your Level of Emotional Intelligence

Executives who attend my workshops learn to recognise the hidden core emotions of people and then the skills to develop self- and social mastery.  Emotions drive people; people drive performance.  I teach practical emotional intelligence.

Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman was first published in 1995. The phrase has become a fixture in the management lexicon, with many organisations now considering it as one of the core competencies required for high performers; thus the phrase “IQ gets you hired, but EQ gets you promoted”. This is because Emotional Intelligence teaches you to pay attention to what drives the behaviour of others — which is especially important if your employment depends on understanding and directing how people feel and act – such as in sales, marketing, managing or leadership.

While Goleman was correct in his premise about the importance of Emotional Intelligence, he did not provide an explanation of how to increase it.

The Humm-Wadsworth model of temperament is the answer, or the ‘Humm’. The Humm is a scientific model of people’s underlying emotions. Once learnt, it allows you to identify within 60 seconds the core emotional drives of others and use it to guide your interactions with them.  Click here to read about the Humm and how to use it to Increase your Emotional Intelligence.

The Humm Develops your Empathy and People Skills

Empathy is the component of Emotional Intelligence that gives individuals social awareness – it allows you to read the style of individuals and adjust your communications accordingly. Empathy is what allows you to be more interpersonally and intrapersonally effective, thus increasing your ability to motivate, influence and drive others. This is an especially important skill for managers, salespeople and leaders to have. Read more about developing your empathy and people skills...
