Description:

Effective communication is crucial for the success of dental professionals in any role. Dental professionals take classes on public speaking, but not listening. Don’t you agree that it is more important to be interested than interesting? This lecture will discuss principles of emotional intelligence that are essential to communication, building trust, conflict management and influential negotiation.

Learning objectives:

Participants will be able to:

  • understand how the principles of emotional intelligence drive communication and decision-making.
  • apply principles of negotiation in instances of conflict management, negotiation and leadership.
  • discuss the psychology of communication and how to build trust and influence.
  • strengthen their emotional intelligence to lead more effectively.
