Emotional Intelligence is the intersection where cognition and emotion meet.

 

It makes possible our capacity for resilience, motivation, empathy, reasoning, stress management, communication, and our ability to read and navigate a wide range of social situations and conflicts.

​

For these reasons, Emotional Intelligence often matters more than technical skill, IQ, and personality.​

​

"Emotional intelligence isn't about sitting around holding hands and singing Kumbaya. These are not soft skills in that they are easy to learn and execute. It is often the opposite. These skills challenge the most intellectual because they require shifting mindset, perspective, and creating standard deviation to our tendencies. These human skills assist us in the most difficult and challenging of situations, to soften the emotional experience, that left unattended, drives us to disruptive behaviours. Emotional intelligence skills enable us to keep our IQ turned on so that we can navigate the situation at hand without being driven by fear, anxiety, stress, overwhelm, blame, guilt, resentment, or anger."

“Teresa makes a real, tangible, impact every time I interact with her.  She listens well, asks the right questions, and provides pragmatic, real-world, coaching after she understands the context of the issue at hand. 

 

I’ve had the pleasure of going through a personal EQ assessment and debrief which revealed several areas for me to dig into for my own personal development.  Teresa provided me with practical tools that I have continually leveraged over the past year as I moved from a corporate job to begin a consulting practice. 

 

As part of that practice, I have engaged Teresa to share her knowledge with clients on multiple occasions.  Her sessions are always well-received and leave attendees more aware of the importance of balancing our IQ and EQ in order to achieve better outcomes. 

 

I’d go to battle with Teresa any day of the week.“
