Perform and Your Best
Personal Leadership, Emotional Intelligence, Mental Resilience
LEARN, GROW, ACHIEVE
Overview of Programme
This programme grew out of my voluntary work at my local college. For the last three years I have been mentoring students to prepare them for life after college through the UK Career Ready scheme, this includes working with a student one to one for a year and delivering masterclasses to the whole cohort.
The programme is delivered in four modules that build on each other with the aim that using the Parent, Teachers and Carers Handbook, support and accountability can be offered between sessions to start building new habits and ways of thinking. From December 2021 this will also include access to an online learning platform to help them track their habits.
This programme helps students build their Emotional Intelligence and learn strategies for reducing stress and anxiety so they can achieve their full potential.

What is Emotional Intelligence and why is it so important?
Emotional Intelligence (EIQ) is made up of 4 pillars: self-recognition, self-management, social-recognition and social-management. It's about how you deal with stress and anxiety. How you manage change, challenges and conflict. It's about how well you understand other people and how you engage with them.
Self-recognition & self-management
The ability to recognise, understand, and manage emotions.
Social-recognition & social-management
The ability to recognise, empathise and relate to the emotions of others.
Can Emotional Intelligence be learned?
Yes - unlike IQ which is fixed at about the age of 15, EIQ is dynamic and can fluctuate depending on what is happening in your life. The great thing is that you can increase your EIQ using a wide range of simple strategies either on your own or, for faster, more profound results, through training and coaching.
Increasing your EIQ can give you the ability to increase your mental strength, feel more in control and be more confident. You will become more adaptable, find it easier to overcome whatever life throws at you and ultimately be more successful in your school/college/professional life and your personal life. In some cases that result can be truly transformational
Digital Emotional Intelligence (DEQ)
'If EQ is the ability to understand, empathise and negotiate with other people, then DEQ is the ability to apply EQ in our increasingly digital, connected environments.'
'Digital Wellness (balancing technology with healthy boundaries & emotional health)'.
Tom Bryant
The way digital platforms have been developed, including social media and email, with notifications, likes and comments means it taps into the same chemical reactions that lead to drug and alcohol addictions, hence individuals who have low DEQ may struggle to differentiate between when it is appropriate and inappropriate to engage digitally.
