 About this Webinar

Organizational ombuds work with individuals and scenarios that are often intensely influenced by emotions. Research indicates that Emotional Intelligence (EI) is a core competency skill necessary for all ombuds, as they are regularly called upon to assist individuals in decoding emotional responses as the first step toward clarity and conflict resolution. 

This webinar is designed to help ombuds insert a practical definition of EI into their organizational work and apply the body of knowledge related to EI to better equip their practice. The history behind this rapidly growing science and how EI fundamentals and ombuds competencies are intricately interwoven will be explored at length.

Key Learning Objectives     

  1. Provide a workable definition, history and scientific basis for emotional intelligence as it relates to the practice of organizational ombudsman.

  2. Assist participants in recognizing and understanding the knowledge domains of emotional intelligence and their impact on the practice of organizational ombudsman.

  3. Provide useful EI resource material to equip ombuds in creating an effective office.
