The Emotionally Effective Leader

• Leaders stepping into bigger roles, where technical expertise is no longer enough on its own.
• Experienced leaders with teams under pressure, who want to lead differently through it.
• Organisations building leadership capability across a group of leaders, not just one.

• Your EQ-i 2.0 Leadership Report. A clear picture of your emotional intelligence across 15 areas, and how each one shows up in your leadership.
• Above and below the line. Recognising when pressure moves you from curious to defensive, and how to come back. It’s the idea resonating most in the room right now.
• When strengths get in the way. How a strength overused, such as empathy without assertiveness, can quietly derail your leadership.
• Your values in action. How what matters to you shapes the way you lead, using the Leadership Effectiveness Framework.
• A plan you’ll actually use. Specific actions built around your strengths and development areas.

Each leader completes the EQ-i 2.0 Leadership assessment before the programme. The sessions mix short input, individual reflection and small-group practice, so you’re working on your own report alongside other leaders rather than just listening.

Most organisations build The Emotionally Effective Leader into an overall leadership programme. It gives every leader a clear, personal starting point and a shared language for the rest of the programme to build on. It can also run on its own.

Format:Full day either in person, or online – ideal group size 12.

Investment: Starting at £400 per person 

Your self-report shows how you see your leadership. An EQ360 shows how others experience it.

Delivered one-to-one, it starts with your EQ-i 2.0 self-assessment and a coaching debrief. We then gather feedback from the people you choose: direct reports, peers, your line manager, clients, and even friends and family if you’d like. In a second session we look at where your view and theirs line up, where they differ, and what any blind spots mean for you.

“This was the best use of time i have had in years. I know have a name for what is going on, and practical ways to change – really energising day”

“Today was the first time I have stopped to reflect on my own leadership, and the impact. Below the line seems to be my default, so relieving to know I don’t need to stay here!”
