Increasing
your effectiveness at work by using your Emotional Intelligence
June 2008– 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

development and promotion of good practice in the field
of the management and development of people, for application
