About the Emotional Intelligence Leadership Institute

The Emotional Intelligence Leadership Institute (EILI) was created to help individuals and teams build the skills of emotional intelligence in easy, accessible, nuanced ways. Through years of experience, we have learned that Emotional Intelligence is a crucial building block to effective leadership. Further, building these skills enhances relationships and success in all the spheres of one’s life.

Emotional intelligence is the foundation of leadership and creativity, it is not just about communication. It is our ability to be self aware, express clearly, manage time, manage conflict, create healthy relationships, make wise decisions, build trust, and manage stress. High EQi directly impacts how we create meaningful solutions, make decisions and collaborate to execute those solutions, and it can be developed through understanding and practice.
