In today’s fast-paced and complex business landscape, emotional awareness and effective communication aren’t just nice to have—they’re critical for building trust, influencing behavior, and driving sustainable performance.
The ability to influence others, therefore, goes beyond traditional leadership—it becomes an art. And the line between genuine influence and manipulation? It’s drawn by two essential values: ethics and empathy.
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) empowers you to recognize and manage your own emotions, understand the emotions of others, and respond with clarity, care, and intention. It’s not about getting people to do what you want—it’s about connecting with them in a way that inspires and elevates.
EQ helps you lead not by authority, but through authentic connection and emotional resonance.

Ngan has really helped me to be a better leader. She is a great listener and draws upon a wealth of knowledge and experience to offer insightful, practical advice to guide me in facing problems and inspiring my team to perform and develop. After you have been in leading position for a while, it is easy to get complacent in the way you do things. Ngan has really helped me to gain new perspectives and continue improving in my career.

The New Leaders course holds immense value because leaders in higher positions face increased demands for emotional intelligence skills. Being conscious of this fact is essential for optimal performance.

Developing from junior managers to senior managers is a long growing path. We reached out to The New Leaders who provide customized training in EQ management to grow our team. Supported by their experience, 3 of our teams have learned to know their inner person, the inner person of their coworkers and build trust within the team. Understanding each other's emotions better helped the teams to grow and elaborate more. A journey that took months and is still ongoing, but certainly worth every minute!

Today's human resources are different from the past; they engage with us through understanding. At The New Leaders' workshop, I learned how to communicate in a way that makes those around me feel confident, safe, and understood, allowing them to be more open with me.
CEO of MNC
Taking on a new role as CEO has been quite challenging. I moved to a new environment where it seems like people are moving slowly and lack motivation. Sometimes, I feel a clear sense of loneliness as a leader and experience burnout. Ngan has helped me strengthen my leadership skills, allowing me to connect with, gradually motivate, and inspire the team. It hasn't been easy, but I have experienced the power of effective leadership. I'm grateful to have her as part of my journey toward becoming a great leader.
