From the founder: You Be Emotionally Intelligent Too

InspireWell4Life editions: You Be … Too An introduction by Dr Alten du Plessis, founder of WorkSmart4Life.

You Be Emotionally Intelligent Too is for everyone who works with people, which at work means nearly everyone: colleagues, team leaders, client-facing staff and managers.

It draws on research on emotional intelligence, which can keep developing throughout life, and helps you recognise, understand and manage emotions well, in yourself and in your relationships with others.

You receive a personalised card deck and an ebook, both carrying your own name on every page. Each A4 card has a theme, a short description and an image on the front, and on the back a gathering of quotes from many voices and wisdom traditions, with room to write your own notes. The ebook holds the same wisdom as a flowing book with a clickable contents page and a dedication written for you. The themes follow ten competencies: Self-Awareness, Self-Regulation, Social Awareness, Relationship Management, Empathy, Motivation, Emotional Recognition, Emotional Expression, Conflict Resolution and Stress Management.

On WorkSmart4Life it sits on the WorkSmart library shelf, and it is one of the editions The Edge can give as a level reward for practice in Connect courses, the move about teams, leading and conversation. The sales page mentions working through one competency a week, so I suggest you begin with Self-Awareness and write on its card one moment from your working day that you noticed more clearly.
