Social Intelligence Training Course

Social intelligence is the exclusively human capacity to use our very large brains to effectively navigate and negotiate complex social relationships and environments. It is the ability to get along well with others, and to get them to cooperate with you. Social Intelligence is about understanding your environment and having a positive influence. It also involves a certain amount of self-insight and a consciousness of one's own perceptions and reaction patterns. Participants in TBAE's Social Intelligence Course will become more confident in their social situations by learning how to express and interrupt social cues, creating positive connections and increasing influence during social situations.

Being adept in social situations will provide benefits in your personal and professional lives. It is a great tool for coaching and development as people will learn “people skills”. Improving social skills through active listening, understanding body language, and being more empathic will give your participants the advantage in their interactions. Social interactions are a two way street, know the rules of the road!

Some of the key points in this course are: being aware of your own behaviors and being empathetic to others. Learn the skills to become an active listener and effective interpersonal communication. There are different social cues and learning how to recognise them will be a great advantage. Other areas looked at are different forms of body language and defining appropriate conversation topics.
