Human Centered Skills at Work.

Emotional intelligence is the key to effective teams and exceptional leaders. In fact, research shows that over 80% of competencies that differentiate top performers from others are related to emotional intelligence. (Harvard Business Review)

The Inseus Leadership Experience taps into the power of emotional intelligence to unleash engaged, authentic leaders who know how to skillfully navigate change and uncertainty, leverage opportunities, and deliver results. In turn, these leaders contribute materially to an organization’s culture, heightening trust, collaboration, and insight, and creating an environment where everyone thrives.

“This was the most valuable investment in myself that I have ever made. I learned techniques and tools that enabled me to better understand myself and others. I will see the benefits of what I have learned in all of my relationships. I am truly grateful for being given this opportunity and know that this will make a positive and permanent impact on my life.”
— Participant, The Inseus Leadership Experience Pilot Program
