Owen Taylor, Parrish

SEMINAR

Location: Bouchon Ballroom

This session will educate participants on the skills, framework, and abilities of emotional intelligence, and how to apply these skill sets in personal and professional settings. Instruction and out-of-class exercises include brain-training techniques modeled by the US Department of Defense as well as proprietary learning-models to support a holistic approach to developing a healthy work/life balance. Direct benefits include improved decision-making and clarity of thought, specifically under pressure and amidst adversity. The indirect benefits of applying emotional intelligence skills are revealed as the ability to stay relaxed with flexible responses, adaptable to change, optimism, and engaged thinking skills during distressed emotional states like problem solving or conflict resolution.
