A Customizable Corporate Program

Beyond Artificial:

In a world of AI, emotional intelligence is the edge.

Your team has the data, the tools, and the technology.

What's missing is the human foundation that makes all of it work.

Your leaders are navigating more change, pressure, and complexity than ever before. The organizations that outperform are the ones who develop emotionally intelligent leaders.

The Program

Your team is experiencing more change, pressure, and complexity than ever before. They have access to powerful data, tools, and technology, but what's missing is emotional intelligence. This program will help them become stronger leaders. Emotional intelligence isn't just another training topic. It's the foundation of your leadership that boosts your organization’s overall performance. 

The HeartWired Leadership Development Program is a fully customizable, research-based training opportunity designed for organizations facing common leadership challenges. Whether delivered live, virtually, or in person, this program incorporates skilled facilitators, personalized emotional intelligence assessments, and transformative conversations that reshape how leaders present themselves.

What's Included:

  • Each participant will receive an Emotional Intelligence assessment that provides insight into their strengths and areas for growth.

  • The curriculum is built on the HeartWired four-competency EI framework and customized to meet your organization's specific leadership needs.

  • Every leader will get a workbook to accompany them throughout the program, filled with reflection prompts, AI activities, and personal action plans to help participants apply what they learn, not just in the classroom.

Optional Add On:  Elevate EI Competencies with Coaching to Deepen and Sustain the Work

If your organization wants to elevate its efforts and ensure that the insights from the assessment and program remain effective, HeartWired offers a customized coaching add-on tailored to your organization's specific needs.

  • Individual Coaching Sessions: One-on-one coaching with Dr. MJ — working directly with each leader's EI assessment results, their personal development goals, and the specific situations they are navigating.

  • Group Coaching Sessions: In our small-group sessions, we foster a collaborative environment for leadership development. Leaders come together to practice emotional intelligence, support one another, and build trust within the team.
