Research shows that Emotional Intelligence can be twice as important as IQ and technical skills in determining who will become a top performer. Enhancing Emotional Intelligence (EI or EQ) skills can have a transformative impact on you as a leader and your other life roles as well.
This workshop explores the concept of Emotional Intelligence and its application organizationally and personally. We will discuss how Emotional Intelligence can be used for workplace planning, high-performance teambuilding, and leadership, personal and career development. Unlike IQ, EQ can be learned, developed and improved with well-designed development programs, feedback and coaching that significantly affect leadership effectiveness.

The Lean Six Sigma Management System is rocking the business world by helping organizations meet or exceed customer requirements through greater efficiency and profitability. "Sigma" is a statistical measurement term that indicates how far a given process deviates from perfection, and the highly disciplined Six Sigma process allows organizations to develop and deliver near-perfect products and services. The central idea behind Six Sigma is that if you can measure how many defects exist in a process, you can systematically eliminate them and get as close to "zero defects" as possible.
This course shows students how to identify and manage process-improvement projects using the systematic, analytical Six Sigma approach. Topics include management roles and responsibilities that support Lean Six Sigma philosophy, specific analysis techniques that can be applied to a process, and inspiring case studies of company successes. Class exercises include simulations that demonstrate the application of tools and techniques.
