Between 20% and 40% of an individual's performance at work is directly related to their emotional intelligence. EQ is a skill set that can be learned and strengthened with practice and feedback. We just need to understand what EQ is and what high EQ looks like - in ourselves and our colleagues.

EQ can provide leaders and individual contributors with actionable strategies to significantly improve performance and business outcomes. We will engage in an exercise that tests our ability to discern facial expressions and the emotions that they convey.

Learning Objectives:

• Introduce two measurable and repeatable models of Emotional Intelligence
• Demonstrate the importance of Emotional Intelligence in a laboratory environment  
• Provide a self assessment model for lab leaders to understand of the behaviors of themselves and their team members
