This two day leadership course is a unique opportunity for you to become an emotionally intelligent leader. The course combines the powerful framework and science of the EQ-i 2.0 Leadership Assessment with a hands on approach to examine where you are as a leader, where you want go next and what EQ leadership competencies you need to strengthen and develop. You will use the EQ-i 2.0 leadership assessment, framework, tools, and facilitated conversations with other like-minded leaders to help get you there. This all happens through a focused exploration of your EQ competencies and challenges as they connect to critical leadership skills. Through the knowledge and insights you gain, you will build clear leadership development goals and actions.

We’ve always offered an optional third day as part of our EQ-i 2.0 / EQ 360 certification program. The third day gives you access to many resources and deepens your understanding of delivering emotional intelligence trainings. It’s a kind of train-the-trainer course and it helps you take your certification to a leadership capacity.
Many people also take the optional third day of our EQ-i 2.0 / EQ 360 Certification course as a stand alone course.
The third day is called Developing EQ.

Our group was captivated by David’s excellent presentation on emotional intelligence. He challenged our already existing perceptions of how emotions affect our workplaces and the effectiveness of our association’s performance. Through laughter, tears and song, David’s engaging presentation style enthralled us all, and he taught us new tools on how to be better leaders. We would highly recommend David!

Emotionally Intelligent leaders are people you want to work with. They respect you and what you bring. They are focused on the heart of the matter and ALL IN. Emotionally intelligent organizations have a culture that people want to be a part of, commit to and give their best to.
Emotional intelligence is foundational to the way we operate in the world, relate to others, create opportunities for ourselves and our organizations; for the way we lead. As leadership development evolves, there is a growing recognition that a leader’s values and beliefs provide the bedrock for effective leadership.
“This is about the heart of what matters, supported by the science of effectiveness.”
When leaders create alignment between their values and the organization’s purpose and goals, the work is more meaningful, and the outcomes more powerful and effective.
As leaders in organizations, women face unique opportunities and challenges. They often juggle multiple roles and responsibilities while navigating social expectations and norms. This course provides participants with an opportunity to have important conversations with their peers about their own leadership journey.
Women attending this program can expect to:
Changing behaviour is hard work and takes time. An investment in coaching is one of the best ways we know to help you move forward. For leadership course participants only, we offer this special pricing of $325/month, based on a three month commitment.
Prepare for an experience that will engage you fully, allow for plenty of sharing and interaction with colleagues and absolutely move you forward in your leadership journey!
Structured dinner where you will have an opportunity to meet the participants and facilitators and be provided with some questions and topics to discuss while sharing a meal.

0:00 This is Sam.
0:02 Sam works in human resources at Company X.
0:06 He’s worked with a lot of managers over the years.
0:10 He’s noticed a few things.
0:12 Some of them have excellent people skills.
0:14 Some of them don’t.
0:16 Some of them seem to be inspiring.
0:19 Their teams have buzz.
0:21 They disagree with each other, and they’re productive.
0:24 They bring their real selves, and their emotional lives to the office everyday.

1:11 did better than others.
1:13 So Sam decided to learn how to assess
1:15 and develop emotional intelligence, or EI.
1:19 He found a company that specialized in EI
1:21 and EI certification.
1:23 He got an assessment for himself
1:25 and learned how he could work on his own emotional operating system.
1:29 And most importantly, he got
1:31 He got certified to administer the assessment to others
1:36 He went back to his company and began working with managers who
1:39 wanted help with their leadership skills.
1:41 The CEO was intrigued and volunteered to go first.
1:45 Pretty soon, everyone wanted an assessment.
1:49 The impact was noticed.
1:51 The culture was shifting.
1:53 Sales went up, customer retention went up.
1:56 People were engaged.
1:58 Deadlines were getting met.
2:00 Communication and teamwork improved.
2:03 And Sam? Well Sam was happy.

We’ve published our annual Certification Course brochure for 2016. We’ve added Regina to our list of cities this year: April 5-6(7). There’s still a few courses left in 2015 though, just in case you’re looking to get certified sooner.

David was one of the keynote speakers at the conference I chaired on emotional intelligence. David had a unique approach combining his gift of song and his knowledge of emotional intelligence and was able to deliver a presentation that enthralled the audience. David’s warm and inviting personality connects with people on an emotional level.

Nexus Conference
David is very knowledgeable of his subject matter and a proficient presenter and trainer. Over the years that I’ve had the pleasure of working with David in different contexts, I found him to be very approachable and warm-hearted, authentic, and constructive in his feedback. Of course I love his singing too!
Carina Fiedeldey-Van Dijk, President

David gave a presentation on Emotional Intelligence to the Calgary Association of Professional Coaches and was a smash hit! He was insightful, knowledgeable and wildly entertaining and we received hugely positive feedback from those that attended. If you are looking for someone to speak to your group or organization about Emotional Intelligence, you need look no further than David. I heartily recommend him without reservation.
