Become resilient at work & in life
Resilience - how to thrive in times of challenge & change
A two day, competency based emotional intelligence workshop
EQ or emotional intelligence enables people to become resilient in their outlook, thoughts, actions and intent. Resilient people are:
- Able to spring back in the face of adversity;
- Have the capacity to recover quickly;
- Have the ability to withstand pressure and even catastrophe;
- Are able to respond, react and recover from life's events;
in ways that are positive, focused on win / win outcomes and on repairing and building robust, sustainable relationships with those around them.
Know what is, choose what is
- Of what you think, feel and do, to be able to;
- Move from habit to choice:
To be able to do the above, the workshop will cover:
- understanding what emotions are and how differing emotions impact you and others;
- the different meaning that you give to different emotions or feelings;
- habits versus choice - do feeling or thought govern our intention;
- how pressure impacts you and your response to it;
- the physiological impacts of stress;
- effective conflict handling and initiating 'hard conversations';
- your intent - the passport to effective and sustainable change.
Six Seconds Emotional Intelligence Assessment
The SEI or Six Seconds Emotional Intelligence Assessment is a practical measure of emotional intelligence and is scientifically validated.
It is designed to put emotional intelligence into context - relating to important life and work outcomes, namely;
- Health: Capacity to maintain optimal energy and functioning
- Relationship quality: Capacity to build and maintain networks
- Quality of life: Capacity to maintain balance and satisfaction
- Effectiveness: Capacity to generate results
- Decision making: Ability to make optimal decisions.
You will receive a personalised SEI leadership report that shows the 8 competencies which are considered essential for leadership and life. It highlights where the individual’s areas of strengths and challenges lie.
It is a level B psychometric assessment and therefore requires debriefing by a qualified SEI Assessor as well as permission from the individual to share it with their superior. Avril Kidd of EQinAction and a Six Seconds Preferred Partner will lead the debrief.

Your EQuip facilitator - Keith Cunningham
I spent all of my corporate career in heavy industry – the gold and diamond mines,Richards Bay Coal Terminal and SAB. All of them provided me with work, functional growth and a good living. In none of them was I able to thrive sustainably. This say’s less about these companies than it does about me, or rather the person I was.
In 2000 I decided I’d had enough of Bosses, went travelling around the world with my wife and partner Liz and began my journey of discovery using Emotional Intelligence.
What I have found is that without self-awareness (Know what is), self-control (Choose what is) and a powerful reason why (Purpose), choice is difficult and change is more so. This is particularly true in today's business world, where people are expected to do much more with much less.
Many of our issues lie with how we perceive the world and our place in it, and much of that perception lies in our sub-conscious. If we can make the sub-conscious conscious, even if only initially in certain situations, we can change our character, and more importantly, others will see us doing so and the road to trust opens. Ultimately it is trusting oneself to respond appropriately in the (pressurised) moment that builds true resilience.
