Description:

Exploring Emotional Intelligence: Key Factors for Inclusive Excellence. Decades of research show that emotional intelligence (EI) competencies demonstrate strong relationships to important academic and workplace outcomes. Research also shows that EI competencies are not dependent on race, gender, or culture of origin, and that anyone can improve their EI with learning and coaching. These workshops will provide an overview of EI, with a focus on the four fundamental clusters of EI: Self-Awareness, Self-Management, Social Awareness, and Relationship Management. Participants will gain EI skills to help them be resilient and successful in graduate school and beyond.

The Emotional Intelligence Lunch Series is a four-part workshop providing an overview of EI, with a focus on fundamental clusters: 

• Self-Awareness: More dates coming in Summer 2026
• Self-Management: April 30
• Social Awareness: May 5
• Relationship Management: June 11
