EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE - THE X FACTOR IN TEACHING

Presented by Dr Rosemary McCallum

Dr Rosemary McCallum, Australia’s leading consultant in Emotional Intelligence, will lead the morning session. She has an academic and research background and has worked extensively in a range of areas including effective communication, relationships, group dynamics, leadership, teamwork and emotional intelligence (EI).

Relationships in the workplace, the home, the community and broader society are the key to effective productivity and mental and psychological well being.

This workshop includes:

• An overview of the key elements of EI
• Using EI in the workplace – building teams, leading colleagues and enhancing communication and relationships with children and families
• Effective communication skills, assertion, empathy
• Workshops for skills in EI
• Strategies for working with families, children and colleagues
• Modelling EI to others
• Using EI to deepen authentic relationships with children.

The PD session uses Emotional Intelligence theories to deepen our work with children. It empowers us to get back to what we know children need most-not iPads and computers, but relationships.
