The content of this course is drawn from the collective research of the Consultant who developed
this module. She is a Certified & Licensed EQ trainer from three organizations based in the US
with focus on Emotional Intelligence. It includes all major findings of long-term research, related
doctoral studies from universities and other leading research efforts, extensive research that
consulted papers, books, instruments, web sites, and other relevant sources in addition to the
consultant’s experience.
It also includes EI research initiatives of the Emotional Intelligence Training and Research Institute
(EITRI), dissertations, articles, current research, and webfolio.
This material was prepared for the sole and exclusive use of all Health Service Professional (HSPs)
of the DEPARTMENT OF HEALH (DOH). This material should not be disclosed or

This course was designed specifically for the needs, concerns, and context of the HSP and the role
of EQ in helping them deliver patient-centered care. It is not advised by the developers of this
module to apply the content found herein to other trainings such as leadership training, mentoring
and coaching, or human resource/talent management. While the principles of EQ can be applied to
the aforementioned topics, context framing, the characteristics of the trainee audience, as well as
the unique needs of the industries to which the audience belongs require nuanced content to
achieve the desired learning outcomes. Effective EQ modules look first at the development needs
of the participants, and a cut-and-paste method will inevitably shortchange the participants and
diminish the power of harnessing EQ in their lives.

Overview
This training module strengthens the level of awareness among HSPs on how emotions affect
actions and the importance of Emotional Intelligence as a foundational competency in improving
patient care with the right interpersonal skills and influence.
In general, this module helps HSPs in their effective delivery of patient-centered care and
understand how emotions affect job performance and productivity. The focus is on improving and
developing the capacity of HSPs to maintain a more positive interpersonal relations with their
clients, express empathy, and effectively deliver key FP, MCH, and TB messages to their clients.
This foundational program focuses on soft skills development among HSPs that would strengthen
their thought processes, consequently affecting their actions and behaviors leading to more
effective client/patient care, interpersonal skills, approach and patient relationships.
As HSPs greatly influence their patients, based on research, influence is a key component of
collaboration and building relationships. Research with the Six Seconds Emotional Intelligence
Assessment on 321 healthcare professionals, shows that a very strong link between EQ and
influence. Those with higher EQ scores also had a 37% advantage on influence.
This four- hour session aims to provide awareness and appreciation on the impact of emotions at
work. Training methodologies include lectures, group discussions, team sharing and personal
reflections.
As part and parcel of the DOH IPC/C training, this EQ module complements other parts of the
IPC/C module with the objective of improving the inter-personal skills of HSPs. It is designed to be
an integral module that builds on and provides a level of unity with the rest of the modules under
IPCC.

Harnessing the Power of Emotional Intelligence for HSPs: Facilitator Guide Page|6
SLIDE 1
Say:
This session has been designed to help you
as HSPs with the basic awareness,
knowledge and principles of how we can
effectively link our actions as health care
service providers with our patients. And all
these are anchored on the foundational
competency known as Emotional
intelligence.
Harnessing the Power of Emotional Intelligence for HSPs: Facilitator Guide Page|7
SLIDE 2
Activity :
Pre-testing form will be distributed at this
point and faci will simply inform all
participants that we would like them to
assess their knowledge on Emotional
Intelligence
Say :
Many of you may have heard about the concept
of Emotional Intelligence. And you may have
questions about:
• Why Emotional Intelligence? Why EQ ?
• Does Managing Emotions really matter?
• Does it make a difference?
• How is Managing Emotions relevant to our
work life as HSPs?
• What has emotions got to do with our work?
• What skill is needed to manage emotions?

SLIDE 3
Say:
The design if this module for all HSPs has
been simplified and today we will have the
chance to understand how our emotions can
harm, can heal and how our emotions would
have a huge impact into our health and that
of our patients.
SLIDE 4
Say:
Our overall learning objectives (or high level
objectives) would be to create awareness in
understanding the principles of Emotional
Intelligence and to recognize the value of
applying EQ into our life and work as health
service providers.
Harnessing the Power of Emotional Intelligence for HSPs: Facilitator Guide Page|9
SLIDE 5
Say:
In the next 4 hours, we will be guiding you
about the impact of our emotions to our self,
to others and to our work.
SLIDE 6
Say:
Our agenda would be three-fold and we will
be discussing about The Feelings,The Brains
and the Balance.
SLIDE 7
Say:
SLIDE 8 + 9
Say:
Then say:
Let’s start with a team huddle and allow a
few minutes for the team to discuss and
ask attendees to validate their answers.
SLIDE 9+10
Say:
Let’s start this session with a story.
SLIDE 11
Say:
As service providers, we are exposed to
different people ---are exposed to various
news daily and let’s take a recent case
featured.
SLIDE 12
Display Slide 12
Say:
Please reflect on this exercise and will give
you 5 minutes to work on this.
Initiate a team huddle and allow the
attendees to share their answers
SLIDE 13
SLIDE 14 + 15
Say:
There are circumstances at work when we
get to manage our emotions well, kindly
recall an experience and another
circumstance where you were not able to
manage your emotions.
Harnessing the Power of Emotional Intelligence for HSPs: Facilitator Guide Page|16
SLIDE 16
Say:
Given the situations that you have shared in
our previous workshop, please share your
thoughts on the ff question
(Team sharing):
Given the 6 categories that you see on this
slide, which category would you consider as
the foundation of all the other categories.
SLIDE 17
Say:
The surprising truth about managing our
emotion is the impact this would have on
our relationships.
SLIDE 18
Say:
For purposes of clarity, allow us to share the
four basic emotions:
SLIDE 19
Ask the attendees, of these four basic
emotions, how many can possible be
detrimental or dangerous?
SLIDE 20
Say:
Anger is truly the worst emotion and I am sure
that everyone can relate to this. Remember the
story about the dad and the son?
SLIDE 21
Say:
This slide shows that we actually have a range of
emotions and at the core would be the four basic
emotions.
SLIDE 22
Say:
By far, we are now made aware that our
thought process elicit a certain kind of
emotions that propels us to act.
It is NOT our thought process that make us
act. It is the emotion coming from that
thought.
Classic example:
You look at your phone during our session
and you read a text message or an email.
That message will always elicit a certain kind
of emotion that will propel you to do either of
these 3 things:
SLIDE 23
Say:
In a scale of 1 to 4, where 4 would mean
good management of emotions and 1
would mean low score. . . how would you
rate your skill in managing your emotions.
SLIDE 24
Say:
What exactly are emotions?
SLIDE 25
Say:
Let’s all have a table huddle, please discuss
if you agree with this statement “ “We are
shaped by our thoughts, we become what
we think about.”
SLIDE 26
Say:
As the famous American novelist,
Ernest Hemingway had taught us
Part 2:
The Brain - Discovering
Emotional Intelligence
Harnessing the Power of Emotional Intelligence for HSPs: Facilitator Guide Page|24
SLIDE 27 + 28
Say:
We now move on to Part 2 of this learning
session – The Brains.
SLIDE 29
Say:
The phenomenal power of our brain can truly
guide us into thinking either positively or
negatively.
SLIDE 30
Say:
The challenge though is that our brain is
hard – wired to give emotions the upper
hand, meaning without the critical
processing, for any stimulus we actually
FEEL it first, thus the need to process and
balance our thinking process and our
feeling process so our actions are directed
into something more beneficial for us.
Harnessing the Power of Emotional Intelligence for HSPs: Facilitator Guide Page|26
Part 3:
The Balance: Skill Needed
to Manage Emotion
Harnessing the Power of Emotional Intelligence for HSPs: Facilitator Guide Page|27
SLIDE 31 + 32
Say:
Given the awareness we have on both the
Thinking and the Feeling, let’s get into the
next module on how do we create the
balance for both.
SLIDE 33
Say:
What skill do we need to manage these
emotions?
SLIDE 34
Say:
Building relationships is critical in our life.
As HSPs, building and strengthening our
relationship with our patients would
definitely mean that their experiences with
us as DOH representatives truly resonates
with our vision to helping them.
SLIDE 35
Say:
This would be the hallmarks of the
transformational theory of EI.
Say:
• Transformational as this is a changing the
way we should think.
• A belief that developing a healthy
emotional mind is intentional and skill
based
• EI behaviors are intentional and wise
behaviors engendered by reflective and
constructive thinking patterns
• A belief that constructive/reflective
thinking can be effectively taught/learned
• A Reflective Process for Life-Long
Transformational Learning
• EI is an Intelligent and Meaningful Self
Direction
SLIDE 36 + 37
Say:
We will run through the 4
dimensions of Emotional intelligence
Say:
First dimension is Self Awareness:
knowing your strengths and
weaknesses
SLIDE 38
Say:
SLIDE 39
Say:
3rd Dimension is Social
Awareness—it’s about being
observant and making the
decision not to make every
situation about you.
SLIDE 40
Say:
As we are wrapping up our session, we
hope we have enlightened each one
about the importance of harnessing the
power of Emotional Intelligence as HSPs.
SLIDE 41
Say:
We now know that as HSPs, we greatly
influence our patients. And this influence
emanates from the experience that our
patients have with us.
