Module 1: Emotional Intelligence in the Workplace – Barbara Burgess
Tapping into emotional intelligence results in a better bottom line for both businesses and employees.

Navigating online meetings, social media, the age of the influencer and an ever expanding list of work-life balance challenges with remote vs. in-office work requires a high level of emotional intelligence.
