We'll explore why EI has become increasingly valued in business environments, contributing to stronger leadership, teamwork, and conflict resolution. Participants will learn practical strategies for applying EI to improve workplace communication and develop competencies that employers consistently rank among the most desirable qualities in new graduates.
