Emotional Intelligence, Resilience & Adaptive Leadership: Thriving Through Change

Introduction

Change is a constant feature of modern working life, whether it is new technology, restructuring, or shifts in how and where we work. But how we respond to change often matters more than the change itself.

In the UK, almost half of employees (44%) say organisational change has negatively affected their wellbeing (CIPD, 2023), and three-quarters report moderate-to-high stress levels linked to workload and uncertainty (Mental Health Foundation / YouGov, 2023).

At the same time, 75% of long-term job success depends on people skills rather than technical expertise (Stanford Research Institute, 2019), and teams with higher emotional intelligence report 20-30% better collaboration and morale (Hay Group UK).

This workshop helps you translate those insights into action.

Through practical tools, reflection and real discussion, you will discover how to use emotional intelligence, resilience strategies, and an adaptive leadership to manage stress, stay composed, and work more effectively with others when things are uncertain.

What You Will Learn

By the end of the seminar, you will be able to:

• Understand the core components of emotional intelligence and how they shape your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours during change
• Apply practical resilience techniques to manage pressure and maintain balance
• Develop adaptive leadership behaviours to respond flexibly and constructively to challenges
• Enhance your communication and empathy skills to support others through transitions
• Create a personal action plan to apply these insights in your everyday work
