CIPD
Chiltern
Branch held a very successful meeting
in Gerrards Cross on the 16th June. Delegates had enjoyed
the evening so much and have suggested a follow-up session
in the very near future
CIPD
(The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development)
professionals gained an insight into the role of Emotional
Intelligence in the workplace when they attended a recent
Branch meeting. At the June meeting of the CIPD Chiltern
Branch Gráinne
Suter and Irene
Clarke from jml Training and Consultancy
presented a taster session on the value of Emotional
Intelligence within organisations.
Emotional
Intelligence (EI) is defined as the ability to understand
our own emotions and those of our colleagues. Tuning
into emotions and understanding their impact on all
aspects of our working life enables us to maximize individual,
team and organisational performance. EI is now widely
recognized as a core part of a leader or manager's development
and is a key indicator in predicting the success of
effective managers.
The
jml Training Team demonstrated how to build Emotional
Intelligence into a range of leadership and team development
training. They invited the audience to complete an Emotional
Intelligence Web sheet and then to explore a range of
techniques to improve self-awareness and self-management,
cornerstones of EI.
EI
can improve relationships at work as it cuts out the
petty jealousies and politics that get in the way of
co-operation at work. A team using their Emotional Intelligence
is more likely to collaborate, build bonds to other
teams and have the honest conversations necessary to
achieve it's organisational objectives.
The
CIPD Chiltern Branch members were keen and lively participators
in the session describing it as 'interesting and rewarding'.
Many of the delegates had enjoyed the evening so much
that on the evaluation form there were suggestions for
a follow-up session with the jml Training and Consultancy
team in the future.

Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development
is the United Kingdom's leading professional body for
those involved in the management and development. They
have 130,000 individual members and their objectives
are to lead in the development and promotion of good
practice in the field of the management and development
