The Power of Emotional Intelligence for SDLC Professionals with David Mantica

Presented by David Mantica, VP and General Manager, SoftEd USA

 

You may be familiar with IQ, which measures your cognitive intelligence. But has anyone asked you about your EQ or emotional quotient? What is EQ? Simply put EQ, which is driven by your emotional intelligence, is your awareness of your actions and feelings, including how they impact the people around you.

Being emotionally intelligent means you understand the cause and effect of your actions and words. You understand what the impact of “being you” has on individuals and groups and you understand how to read others’ emotions and actions and work within their emotional limits. The key to remember is you can never change someone, but you can change and adjust yourself. Emotional Intelligence is about how to change and adjust yourself and includes these attributes:

    · Respecting others

    · Listening to others

    · Empathizing with others

    · Identifying with others

 

Knowledge workers, especially SDLC workers, do their work in teams. Teams are filled with “others”. Your ability to work with those “others” determines what you get done, how fast you get it done and how much value you deliver. If you have a high EQ, you get things done fast with minimal impact on the organization while providing high value.

 

After listening to this session, you will be able to:

    · Understand the meaning of emotional intelligence

    · Distinguish the differences between EQ and IQ

    · Identify emotional hot buttons

    · Determine which emotional intelligence competencies to improve when working with others

    · Detect the signs of emotional outbursts in others

Future Forward - Practicing Business Analysis in the New Environment with Billie Johnson, CBAP

Presented by Billie Johnson, CBAP, Author | Trainer | Coach

 

As business analysts, it is our job to bring people together, build relationships, and forge a common understanding across the team. Normally, that involves getting people into the same room. Given current work environments, we cannot bring people together in the same manner. Does that mean we can’t build relationships or forge common understandings? Of course not! We just have to do it a bit differently.

 

Billie Johnson will share her insights on working in distributed teams and will show how those same techniques apply to the here and now.

 

Through this session, you will learn:

    Challenges of working in a distributed environment

    Changes that can be made to address those challenges

    Techniques to use for improving results
