"All researchers agree that the most fundamental factor of EQ is self-awareness, all other aspects build upon it… essentially it is the self-awareness element of EQ development that differentiates it from other management development" (Slaski, 2000).

Whilst some might dispute this research finding, Margaret’s work over the last decade is that self-awareness is central to developing emotional intelligence - that is, our capacity to notice, think about, make sense of, and act upon emotional information. At the heart of Relational Gestalt Coaching (RGC) is self-awareness, This workshop draws together three key psychological strands, Gestalt, Coaching and ‘EQ’ psychology, with a specific emphasis on ways of developing our own and our client’s levels, or ‘zones’, of awareness.

You will learn:

• Up-to-date knowledge on the theory and practice of ‘EQ’
• An outline of the Relational Gestalt Coaching (RCG) model
• Awareness of the theory and ‘tools’ associated with RGC
• Insight into your own level of ‘EQ’ as measured by the Boston EI-Q based on the ‘five steps to EQ’ outlined in The Emotional Intelligence Pocketbook
