**Lunch and** **Learn -** **Emotional Intelligence and Project Management: The Key to High-Performing Teams**
Project managers navigate constant change and challenges. Why do some handle these obstacles with ease while others struggle? The difference often lies in Emotional Intelligence (EI, also known as emotional quotient or EQ).

Successful project managers leverage EI to understand, connect with, and motivate their teams, ensuring smoother collaboration and better outcomes. Emotional Intelligence is the ability to recognize and manage emotions—both your own and those of others—to foster effective communication and teamwork.

Think about your own experiences:

* Do you often hear, *"That’s not what I meant!"* in conversations?
* Do you get frustrated when others don’t think like you?
* Do you find it difficult to maintain control of meetings?

The good news? Everyone has Emotional Intelligence—it's just a matter of refining and applying it.

This interactive session will introduce practical EI strategies that empower project managers to cultivate high-performing teams, build strong stakeholder relationships, and navigate challenges with confidence.

**What You’ll Learn:**

* Apply EI techniques to strengthen stakeholder relationships.
* Foster a collaborative and motivated project team.
* Lead more effective and engaging team meetings.

Join us to discover how Emotional Intelligence can be the game-changer in your project management success!
