About This Course

Who this course is for:

  • Individuals eager to learn critical thinking to enhance both personal and professional decision-making.
  • Anyone curious about the deep connection between emotional intelligence and critical thinking.
  • Professionals seeking to better understand themselves and collaborate more effectively with others.
  • Business-focused learners looking to apply emotional intelligence in practical, high-impact ways. 

What you’ll learn:

  • Explain how emotional intelligence and critical thinking complement each other in decision-making.
  • Distinguish between the two core thinking systems and how they affect emotional intelligence.
  • Identify unconscious bias and thinking distortions—and understand their impact on your reasoning.
  • Discover actionable ways to improve your critical thinking in both everyday and strategic situations.
  • Develop practical strategies to apply critical thinking within business contexts.

Requirements:

  • A basic understanding of emotional intelligence is recommended.

In today’s complex, fast-paced world, the ability to learn critical thinking is more vital than ever. Coupled with emotional intelligence, this course offers a transformative lens on how we think, make decisions, and solve problems.

You’ll explore:

  • The fundamentals of critical thinking training, including objective analysis, logical reasoning, and informed judgment.
  • How emotions can enhance or hinder your thinking—and how to harness them effectively.
  • The interplay between systems thinking and unconscious bias, and how these shape your decision-making.
  • Practical frameworks for applying emotional intelligence to improve collaboration, leadership, and communication.

Unlike traditional theory-heavy programs, this course focuses on real-world applications. Whether you’re leading a team, managing conflict, or making strategic decisions, you’ll gain actionable skills rooted in psychology and behavioral science.

While grounded in research, this course avoids dense academic jargon. Instead, it delivers insights in a clear, pragmatic way to ensure immediate relevance and application.

You’ll also engage with exercises to uncover and understand your own cognitive biases—boosting awareness without claiming to eliminate them. This is essential training for anyone looking to develop self-awareness and sound reasoning in professional environments.

Please note: This is not an introductory course on emotional intelligence. It builds upon foundational knowledge and dives deeper into its integration with critical thinking processes.
