No matter how much you’ve worked on your essential skills as a leader, if your employees’ emotional and mental wellness is not prioritized, it could cost you $550 billion each year, according to a study by The Engagement Institute.
With toxic workplace behavior being the single largest predictor of negative employee outcomes — including burnout — it’s no surprise that leaders are seeing an increase in employee disengagement and high turnover. As leaders continue to focus on their bottom line, how can they include essential skills in their organization’s development?
During this event, we’ll re-evaluate what skills are pivotal for leaders to thrive while creating a safe and trustworthy environment that propels their team’s professional development. From emotional intelligence best practices to inclusive communication guidance, we’ll work on identifying quintessential people skills for leaders to master.
In this series, you’ll hear:
- How to create and refine emotional intelligence best practices for leadership
- Strategies to become an influential leader by focusing on your people skills
- Ways to encourage equitable communication within your organization’s development
