Mastering self-management & emotional control
More detailed information
Understanding your emotions is one thing—managing them effectively is another. In moments of stress or challenge, do you stay in control, or do your emotions take over? Self-management is the ability to regulate your emotions, maintain focus, and adapt to change without being derailed.
In this workshop, we’ll explore how to develop emotional self-control, manage stress proactively, and shift your mindset toward resilience, adaptability, and achievement. You’ll learn how the amygdala hijack impacts your reactions and gain practical strategies to stay composed, even under pressure.
