Developing Your Leaders To Be More Emotionally Intelligent – Resilient, Empathetic, Adaptable And Inspiring
Why We Do This
“We believe when leaders are emotionally intelligent, they and their people are happier and more fulfilled, and get better results for themselves, their teams and their organisations.”
Anne Taylor & Sue Belton



Successful, technically excellent leaders perform better when they develop their emotional intelligence (EQ). They will become more resilient and empathetic, agile and adaptable, all while having more collaborative conversations.
EQ Leadership Formula Model
Our EQ Leadership Formula Model has been developed through extensive experience and research. Rooted in neuroscience and mindfulness, it ensures lasting behavioural change.

You and Your People
WHO YOU ARE – As an HR Professional or Leader, you want to confidently face the challenges ahead and proactively support, develop and retain your people and be an ‘employer of choice.’ You and your leaders are smart, technically excellent and have been resilient in this difficult time. You know more is needed to perform through this next phase, and that EQ or ‘soft skills’ are integral to success.

Emotional Fatigue
- You’re worried about your employees’ well-being, stress levels and mental health.
- You’re seeing emotional outbursts, lack of patience and overwhelm and increased absenteeism.
- Emotional fatigue and exhaustion are commonplace.
- Now leaders need to have new levels of understanding, empathy and patience for their people while also dealing with their own emotional fatigue.

Avoiding DIfficult Conversations
- There are pockets of minimal collaboration, low trust, silos and avoidance of challenging conversations.
- Leaders and managers are reluctant to give and receive feedback, ‘tell’ rather than coach resulting in less engagement and empowerment.
- More ‘difficult conversations’ are needed, for more effective decision-making, greater influencing, authenticity and cohesion.

Rigidity + Inflexibility
- There’s a relentless pace, constant change; processes and people are not adapting fast enough.
- Practices and mindsets need to be more agile.
- Decision making and bureaucracy stall innovation.
- Leaders feel pressure to hit targets, all while addressing the macro issues of climate, sustainability, pandemics and inclusion.
- You risk falling behind the competition and ruining your reputation.
