Build Emotional Intelligence for Collaboration and Innovation

In our personal and professional lives, emotional intelligence is a vital skill to build positive relationships and unlock our potential for innovation.

On this four-week course featuring content from BigThink, you’ll develop a foundation in each of the four domains of emotional intelligence before progressing to more advanced leadership skills.

You’ll learn from some of the experts in emotional intelligence such as Daniel Goleman, Alan Alda, Kelly McGonigal, and Brian Glazer, to name a few.

Psychologist and author Daniel Goleman defined the four domains of emotional intelligence as Self-Awareness, Self-Management, Social Awareness, and Relationship Management.

You’ll explore each of these domains, building on each as you progress through the course. You’ll start with a greater awareness of self, and end with managing relationships that are critical to your personal and professional life.

It’s important to develop an awareness of yourself in order to manage your self-control and collaborate more effectively.

On this course, you’ll build a foundation of self-awareness, exploring different ways to use your strengths, overcome your limitations, and create space between yourself and your emotions through mindfulness.

Effective collaborating isn’t just about the skills and experience of a team; it also comes down to mutual respect and understanding.

This course will develop your social awareness, looking at how people see the world differently based on a variety of factors. You’ll then be able to apply this social awareness, along with self-awareness, to build positive, mutually beneficial relationships.
