In today’s fast-paced tech landscape, technical expertise alone isn’t enough to lead effectively. The most successful leaders harness the power of Emotional Intelligence (EQ) to build resilient teams, foster innovation, and navigate complex challenges with confidence.
This interactive session will begin with a self-assessment to help attendees gauge their own emotional intelligence. From there, we’ll take a deep dive into the four core domains of EQ; Self-Awareness, Self-Management, Social Awareness, and Relationship Management.
Attendees will walk away with practical strategies to strengthen each domain, including techniques for managing stress, improving team communication, and fostering a culture of trust and psychological safety.
Whether you're a Tech Lead, Engineering Manager, or aspiring leader, this session will provide actionable insights to elevate your leadership style and make a lasting impact on your teams and organizations.
