We all know we feel emotions, but few of us really know what effect they're having on us. Another prominent research area for positive psychologists, we need to recognise, understand, use, and manage our own, and others' emotions to get the most from them. Some argue emotional intelligence matters more in business and life success than the intelligence measured by IQ. In our experience, it's easily equally important.
In this session we explore some of the research in the field, then experience how different feelings can affect our thinking. We then work on practical ways to increase our skill at working with our emotions so they're no longer barriers, but beneficial. We then practice honing our perception of others' emotions, and our understanding and sensitivity to tricky situations.

What makes us different? We think there are five factors.
1. We use science - taking positive psychology research and turning it into something you can use in real life (that isn't too cheesy).
2. We know what changes behaviour - before, during and after a learning experience it takes effort. We aim to make it as easy as possible for you.
3. We work with individuals - because every person is different.
4. We're flexible - because each context is different.
5. We have fun - because we know positive emotions are contagious (and bring lots of other good stuff too).
