Today Cindy Fine shared with us her thoughts on “Emotional Intelligence” – Our quiet power in a noisy world. Our days are filled with distractions – email’s, texts, notifications and presenters throwing things at you. Sometimes it can become overwhelming and we need a break. Cindy shared four aspects of emotional intelligence: Self Assurance (triggers, emotional awareness, accurate self-assessment); Social Awareness (understanding others, organizational awareness, service); Self-management (motivation, self-control, adaptability); Social Competence (influence, cooperation, collaboration).
Cindy expounded upon “Triggers” delving into the physical and psychological reactions that occur when we are triggered. Next Cindy challenged us with an exercise with Club Members teaming up with a partner and sketching their partner’s face. We have some amazing artists in the Club and others that make emoji’s look fancy! Cindy wrapped up her presentation sharing tips for managing our emotions.
