Understanding and developing your Emotional Intelligence (EI) can help you succeed in school, develop relationships, and navigate the challenges of life. EI refers to a distinct combination of emotional and social skills that influence your overall capability to cope effectively with the unique demands and pressures of school and life.
The EQ-i 2.0 will provide insight into:
- How you interact with others
- Your Self-confidence
- Expressing yourself

Prior to attending this session, participants take approximately 20 minutes of uninterrupted time to complete the instrument.

You must complete the questions in one sitting or the system will not save your answers and you will need to start over from the beginning.
Do you know what your "leadership style" is? If not, find out! This session will have the participants take a personal leadership inventory, called the DiSC. We will then explore the good, the bad and the ugly of each of the four styles and how leaders can best work with each type of leadership style. You are sure to have some "ah ha" moments in this interactive session!
The first step to leadership development is self-awareness. Participants take the Myers Briggs Type Inventory (MBTI) prior to attendance. During this session, you learn more about the behavior preferences and how you can utilize your knowledge of behavior preference to guide you to better leadership behaviors.
This workshop is designed to help participants:
- Understand the five conflict-handling modes of the TKI® assessment
- Increase their awareness of their own and others' conflict styles
- Develop skills for assessing conflict situations and selecting appropriate strategies for handling them
- Practice using different conflict modes
- Create an action plan for developing more effective conflict resolution skills
The Student Leadership Practice Inventory is a cornerstone of a powerful leadership development model, created by James M. Kouzes and Barry Z. Posner, authors of the book, The Leadership Challenge and The Student Leadership Challenge. This SLPI assessment is a quick and easy way for Leaders to rate themselves and begin to take action to improve their leadership performance.
Participation on your part includes doing the self-assessment and also asking five colleagues in your organization to complete the observer assessment on your behalf. Typically, it takes a Leader or Observer approximately 10-15 minutes to complete the 30-item assessments. This workshop includes a review of the behaviors and actions of exemplary leadership, identifying areas of improving your organization leadership practices, and identifying personal strengths as leaders. To assessment improvements, we also recommend re-doing this process about six months later.
Observer assessments are confidential and are submitted directly to your facilitator. You will have the opportunity to view all ratings; however individual observer names are not included. While this might make it difficult to follow up with individuals on specific ratings and scenarios, it is shown that a more accurate assessment is provided if it is confidential.
