Based on the New York Times best seller, Daniel Goleman addresses the resounding need for leaders & employees to embody Emotional Intelligence (EQ) skills.  This class discusses the four EQ cores, that when practiced with diligent commitment, move, motivate, & lead at every level of your agency.  Never before has the need been greater from the inside-out to support & sustain Officer and civilian morale.

3. Recognizing & managing manipulative behaviors in self & others that erode internal healthy professional relationships that negatively impact Officers with the public. 
4. EQ skills leaders need to build & sustain subordinate morale in these difficult times to constructively debrief towards increasing public human civility & professionalism.
