EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE - A practical Introduction (Video Extract)

I was delighted to be asked by Matt Kendall of Interesting Talks - London  to give a practical overview of Emotional Intelligence - Picadilly, London, Monday 21 October 2013.

The main themes of the evening were: 

• the definition, domains & key skills of EI 
• the role of mindfulness in the study & practice of EI
• awareness of the corrosive nature of daily 'low level' negativity in the workplace
• replacing negativity with real positivity

During the course of the 2 hour session the seventy members were split into groups to list and discuss their own awareness of their personal points of stress; their negativity triggers; and finally, personal positive truths about themselves. Everyone got involved and contributed to a lively and enjoyable evening.

Below is a brief extract taken half way through the evening.
