Using Positive Psychology to Coach Emotional Intelligence
Positive psychology is the scientific study of character strengths that
enable individuals, teams, organizations and communities to thrive. The field
is founded on the belief that people want to lead meaningful and fulfilling
lives, to cultivate what is best within themselves, and to enhance their
experiences of love work and play.
Our focus in this course will be on the power of positive emotions, positive
individual characteristics and traits, and positive institutions (including
families, communities, and workplaces).
Understanding positive emotions requires the study of contentment with the
past, happiness in the present and hope for the future. We will explore the
capacity of love and work, resilience, creativity, curiosity, integrity,
self-knowledge, self-control, courage, compassion and wisdom.
In this course, we will undertake an in-depth exploration of how to use
positive psychology in coaching emotional intelligence, including:
- How to use positive psychology and well-being questionnaires to generate
awareness
- The latest theories about positive psychology and how it relates to health,
life satisfaction, reduction of stress, and productivity
- How to use the neuroscience of positive psychology to bring about behavior
change in individuals and groups
- How to build families and schools that allow children to flourish
- How to build a workplace that fosters satisfaction, engagement and high
productivity
- How to foster civility and civil engagement in our communities
- How to use the burgeoning suite of positive psychology tools, exercises and
interventions to make a difference with our clients
The course meets 6 times, once per week for one hour and you will earn 6 recertification credits upon completion. Cost is $795 and payment plans are available.

The Resilient Leader: Instilling Grit
Grit, or resiliency, is a competency of emotional intelligence based upon one's passion for a long-term goal that's coupled with a powerful motivation to achieve that objective, despite setbacks, barriers or limited resources. It's that ability to bounce back well when things don't go the way we hope. It's the courage and resolve to tackle what we set out to accomplish. And the truth is, some people have it -- and some people don't. Grit proves to be a valuable skill in the professional world as we navigate the challenges that come with running a business, meeting deadlines, and reaching quotas. And no one can disagree that grit is required to keep our personal relationships in good health. The good news is that grit can be learned and taught. Learn how to coach your clients to bounce back after failures and setbacks and help them learn to avoid the dangerous descent into fear, the inability to act, or even depression.
In this course, you will learn:
- What grit is and how it is important
- The continuum of responses to setback and failure
- The most current techniques and research on how to embrace grit and instill it in others
- How we can help others experience individual growth and overcome post-traumatic stress disorder
- A 7-step process for maximizing resilience in your clients in the workplace and at home
