EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

A Pathway to Personal Success

PART ONE
ACHIEVE PERSONAL MASTERY AS YOU TRANSCEND CHALLENGES AND LEARN SECRETS OF SOARING NEW HEIGHTS.

Mastery: "ascendancy or victory in struggle or competition."Masters are the victors of life, those who step up to the challenges and opportunities of life with the courage, determination, and wisdom to win the private and public victories.

Mastery does not happen by accident. It is a process that occurs as we interact effectively with the events and circumstances of our lives. Each moment of our lives provides an opportunity to practice mastery by expanding our visions, awakening the faculties of our minds and our hearts, and assuming full responsibility for living, growing, and contributing.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

People who attend this program will learn a set of principles that will change the way they view their lives as well as their performance on the job. They will grow in self-understanding, confidence, personal effectiveness, and their ability to handle the challenges/opportunities of the workplace. Such personal transformation forms the foundation for organizational transformation.

PRINCIPLES OF SELF-MASTERY

Define Your Purpose:
