Emotions have a huge impact in the workplace. Our emotions can create passion and drive resulting in great achievement, or at times can derail our best-laid plans. When leaders fail to manage emotions effectively, the result can be organizational chaos.
By understanding and managing the workings of emotions in the workplace, we are better able to perform to our full capacity and make teams most effective.
In this session, we will use a model called FIRO theory to understand how underlying emotions are tied to behavior and how and why we become defensive and resistant. Participants will learn the impact emotions have in the workplace. They will begin to learn how to recognize and connect emotions to behavior.
By understanding the workings of emotions in the workplace, participants will begin to understand how this knowledge will better prepare teams to perform to their full capacity, make teams most effective. For leaders and team members, we will demonstrate the impact on leadership, conflict resolutions, change management and innovation.
