ABACC welcomes Dr. Gary Oliver, PhD
Emotional and Relational Intelligence in Effective Leadership Crisis happen. Problems happen. Stress happens. The best time to prepare to deal with problems, stress and crisis is before it occurs. During difficult times many people react or even overreact in ways that decrease trust and actually exacerbate existing problems and create new one. Wise people have learned how to respond rather than react. All ministry and all business is about relationships. As goes our ability to understand and manage our own emotions, reactions and responses so goes our ability to empathize, understand, communicate and respond in healthy ways that create the kind of trust that builds the kinds of relationships that allow us to be effective in any and all circumstances, but especially during times of chaos and crisis when emotional stability and relational capitol is most needed. In these two sessions you will learn how becoming more emotionally and relationally intelligent will better equip you to identify and manage your own emotions as well as how to understand and deal with the emotions and reactions of others. Increasing your emotional and relational intelligence will facilitate your growth spiritually and relationally and help you to become a more stable and effective leader especially during the difficult times. |
