Developing young leaders’ coaching skills Robin Chu introduced and concluded the interactive session facilitated by Chloe Garland and Jeffrey Wotherspoon on why emotional intelligence (EI) is increasingly important for career success. With significant shifts like AI, inclusion and demographic change propelling the human focus and inclusion up the agenda, “self-awareness and empathy in the workplace are receiving greater attention,” said Mr Chu. “We want to encourage people to be their

and guest at this session on raising awareness of the importance of emotional intelligence, Dami Shittu, a paralegal at OGR Stock Denton. “It could do the world of good for the
future if leaders today took time to look within themselves and see the impact their emotional intelligence could have on other people,” she said.
