It's time for emotions. After leadership and challenges, the EEC announces that in 2016 it will focus on raising awareness of emotions, a cross-cutting issue that the company will explore in its communications, training sessions, and interventions with companies and teams in the coming months.
If in 2014 the EEC addressed the meaning of Conscious Leadership and in 2015 that of the challenges, in 2016 the company, pioneer in coaching in Spain, chooses to focus on emotional awareness because "now" We want to emphasize the need to learn to work and identify emotions to develop and grow", ," assures Eva López-Acevedo, executive partner of the EEC.
"Today we know more than ever that what is possible from a given emotion is impossible from the opposite or inverse emotion. And, therefore, that If we want to achieve the desired challenge, it is essential to connect with the appropriate emotion that allows for the necessary change.. "Change, growth, learning and results are our daily work material and that do not happen or are not possible, the emotions involved," says Silvia Guarnieri, academic partner of the EEC.
Emotions will permeate everything. "It is time to put our knowledge, skills, Tools and experiences related to emotions "Both in a new specialization program that we launched on the market and in our consulting interventions," clarifies Eva López-Acevedo.
"For the coaches who get involved with us," continues Silvia Guarnieri, "it will mean the incorporation of important and necessary tools so that they can work more effectively with their coaching clients." "For the leaders we work with, it will mean a difference in the handling of the equipment and relationships, "in such a way that it has a positive impact on the desired result," announces the executive partner.
"For teams that work with us", "It continues," Silvia Guarnieri, Master Coach by the ICF, for the choice of Emotional Awareness as the motto and as the driving force behind the actions of the EEC during 2016, "it will entail a model of intervention, which includes emotions in decision-making, in relationships with the other teams of the organization, in the team’s debates or discussions, etc., in such a way that the result should be the result of a reflection that can be sustained over time".
"After thirteen years of professional experience, we believe that it is impossible to generate transformational changes without addressing our clients" emotions in depth," concludes López Acevedo. "If we think that the greatest risk is the one that comes from the lack of empathy, we must also be aware that the greatest opportunity comes from it."The responsibility of a leader is to create the context adequate for things to happen, In our opinion, the emotional context that the leader generates has a specific weight and it is necessary to address it in depth. As Antonio Machado said, “I only remember the emotion of things.”.
