The Women’s Alliance Network (WAN) invites you to join us for the first event in our Fall 2026 Professional Development Series: Emotional Intelligence!
Emotional intelligence plays an important role in how we communicate, navigate relationships, and respond to everyday challenges at work. In this session, we’ll explore practical ways to recognize and manage our own emotions, better understand others, and respond thoughtfully in a variety of situations. Whether you’re navigating a difficult conversation, collaborating with colleagues, or simply looking to strengthen your communication skills, these tools can help you build stronger workplace relationships.
