Teams are not collections of roles and responsibilities.

They are collections of people whose emotions, relationships, and shared experience shape everything that gets done together.
About this course

Build the emotional intelligence to work more effectively with others, navigate conflict, and lead through change

This course helps you work more effectively with others by strengthening communication, collaboration, and emotional intelligence. Conflict is expected in any team, but what matters is how it is handled by individuals, leaders, and the team as a whole. The course focuses on empathy and social skills that form the outer world of emotional intelligence.

You will explore how the emotional climate affects team performance and how to build trust, clarity, and shared purpose. You will learn to understand others' strengths, behaviours, and preferred approaches to teamwork, and develop strategies to bring out the best in the people around you.

The course also shows how to manage emotions during change and build resilience in teams and organisations. You will gain practical tools to improve team dynamics, build stronger relationships, and increase performance at both personal and team levels.

Designed for professionals, leaders, HR practitioners, project managers, and anyone involved in group work from corporate teams to community organisations. No prior experience is needed, just a willingness to reflect, engage, and grow.

Pleasantly surprised. I've enjoyed the course and found myself learning quite a few things about me, my teams, my ways etc. As a new manager, this is helpful and I welcome the new knowledge.

I learned that change is mostly about people's feelings, not just plans. Everyone reacts differently, so empathy and patience make a huge difference.

Robin Hills is the founder of Ei4Change and a recognised authority in emotional intelligence, with more than 45 years of experience as a business psychologist, trainer, and facilitator.

Emotional intelligence is not one topic among many in his work. It is the central focus. His teaching is built on a clear principle: emotional intelligence only matters when it is applied in real situations that shape decisions, relationships, and performance.

Through Ei4Change, Robin has developed one of the most established global platforms for emotional intelligence learning and development. His courses have reached over 600,000 learners across more than 200 countries, spanning a wide range of roles, industries, and levels of experience.

His approach is grounded in psychological research and informed by practical experience. Rather than offering quick fixes or surface level insight, he focuses on helping people think clearly under pressure, handle difficult situations, and make better decisions in the moment.

Robin's work reflects the reality that emotional intelligence is not about feeling good. It is about understanding what is happening within yourself and with others, and responding in a way that improves outcomes.
