Leading with Emotional Intelligence Workshops

Build your leadership skills by enhancing your emotional intelligence (EI) in this online cohort series.The course covers key EI domains and introduces the 5-Square Model for practical application. The two-half day interactive sessions include 20-30 minutes of pre-work.

5-Square Coach Development Program Cohort 9

We aim to build internal organizational capacity to deliver EI-based leadership development and coaching. We do this by training cohorts of senior leaders or experienced coaches to learn and apply the 5-Square approach. Each participant builds coaching skills through learning and practice in seminars, and receives on-going support and feedback in their own coaching practice.

Take our FREE EI Self-Assesstment Survey!

This new tool is THE easiest and most compelling entry point to 5-Square leadership development work that we have created. Leaders take a 10-minute online survey and get a robust report about which of the 7 mindsets in The Noble School Leader book is most likely an obstacle in their adaptive leadership, and a self-coaching guide to work on that mindset. We highly recommend that your team take this free survey before introducing the book or the 5-Square.

1-1 & Team Leadership Coaching

Both individual coaching and team coaching are guided by our 5 Square framework and track progress toward measurable goals. Leaders build deeper levels of self-awareness by exploring their triggers, emotions, assumptions, beliefs, and core values.

Coaches meet with individual leaders at least every two weeks in person or via web-conferencing, and the sessions are grounded in the day-to-day adaptive work of the leader. Team coaching takes place in real time, during team leader-led meetings and work sessions.

Cohort Professional Development

These sessions get leaders out of their “thinking” brains (the neocortex) and into their “feeling” brains (the limbic system). Facilitators use the 5-square framework in group practice, coaching leaders through adaptive role-specific simulations while coaching them to manage their “stuff,” access their “standard,” diagnose root adaptive team challenges and needs, and create optimal conditions of connection and challenge to achieve their goals.
