Acknowledging emotions, particularly among males, is considered a failing, a sign of weakness. Better to deny the emotion than to admit its existence, understand it, and control it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">Now imagine that same attitude extended to any professional sport such as baseball, hockey, or golf. Imagine a player failing because of errors in gripping a bat, stick, or club. What coach or fan would expect that player to ignore that lack of skill and not attempt to correct it? Denying or ignoring that lack of skill would be seen as madness, counterproductive, and would eventually lead to a lack of advancement or total failure on the part of the player.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">Why do we see emotional skill as any different?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">The ability to recognize and understand emotions in ourselves and others and use this awareness to manage our behaviour and relationships is at the heart of EQ.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">And what does a strong EQ mean for our students?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">Studies have shown that as a predictor of success in business, EQ outweighs IQ.

Our students are not weaker for acknowledging and mastering their emotions but stronger and more capable. With the mastery of EQ, our students will excel in both personal and business relationships, have less stress and anxiety, and lead happier lives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjQxNDkifX0=@&#8221; button_text=&#8221;Order Now&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.0&#8243; _dynamic_attributes=&#8221;button_url&#8221; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; button_bg_color=&#8221;#7CDA24&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emotional IntelligenceThe R.L.S.
