Unlock Leadership Excellence
Master the Inner Game of Leadership Success at the highest levels of management is rarely about technical skill alone; it is defined by the ability to manage oneself and influence others. Join us for this transformative masterclass on Leadership, Self-awareness, and Emotional Intelligence (EQ), delivered by Professor Chris Chan.
In an era of radical transparency and organizational complexity, a leader’s self-awareness is their most valuable asset. This session moves beyond the buzzwords of EQ to examine how emotional regulation and social awareness directly impact decision-making, team culture, and long-term organizational performance.
Workshop Highlights: The Case of the "Isolated Executive"
We will dive into a compelling real-world case study centered on a high-performing executive who transitioned into a high-stakes leadership role, only to find that their traditional "command and control" style met with quiet resistance and plummeting morale.
Participants will analyze:
-
The Blind Spot: Identifying how a lack of self-awareness can derail even the most brilliant strategic plans.
-
The EQ Pivot: How the executive utilized emotional intelligence to rebuild trust with a skeptical leadership team.
-
Strategic Empathy: Implementing frameworks to read organizational "undercurrents" and align diverse stakeholders under pressure.
