  Join us for a Session on Self-awareness: Leading with Emotional Intelligence

  

  Tri Pham, Dale Carnegie Missouri

  Emotionally intelligent professionals and leaders bring both a focus on results and a care for people. With organizations today dealing with rapid change, new technology, and growth in other areas, having leaders who navigate the technical side of business is not enough. Today’s leaders must lead with emotional intelligence to truly engage, retain, and motivate their teams.

  Self-awareness is at the heart of emotional intelligence. When we are self-aware, it means we have a strong realization of our personality, including our strengths and weaknesses, our emotions, beliefs, and motivations.

  We all have weaknesses we are aware of, and blind spots which represent opportunities for growth of which we are unaware. When we’re unaware of an aspect of our behavior that is problematic for others, it may impede our ability to lead effectively. In this program, we will use a variety of techniques to enhance our self-awareness while gaining insights from fellow participants to help make a positive change to behaviors we wish to see transformed.

  Learning Objectives:

  Describe the relationship between perspective and self-awareness
  Discover open and hidden leadership qualities
  Identify the positive impact of self-awareness on your ability to effectively lead
  Practice “feedforward” as a tool for personal growth and self-awareness
  

  
  

  
  

  Tri Pham's Bio: Enthusiastic, fun, and impactful. The three words that inspire Tri in his work and life. After immigrating to the U.S in 2005, Tri took advantage of the endless opportunities and learned to never settle. With Vietnamese as his native tongue, Tri quickly acquired English and later, double majored in French and International Business. Tri’s passion for development is driven by his desire to help others succeed. He believes that with an enthusiastic attitude, people can become the better version of themselves.

  Tri graduated from Southern Illinois University with a Master’s Degree in Industrial Organizational Psychology (2020), with a focus in organizational development. With a strong interest in leadership and professional development, Tri joined Dale Carnegie of Missouri in late 2020.

  As a certified senior trainer for Dale Carnegie, Tri leads development programs for organizations of all sizes, in various industries including construction, health care, and wholesale distribution. He also gets great sense of fulfillment in coaching and guiding up and coming trainers. Seeing the impact of his work and having the opportunity to connect with individuals from all walks of life are what motivate Tri in his career. In no particular order, Tri loves his dog (Roscoe), playing pickleball, and Celine Dion.
