Emotions@Work® delivers group programs that assist people in developing awareness of their emotions and learn to better manage difficult responses at work and in educational environments.

Emotions@Work® programs use emotions as a starting point for changing behaviours. This is in contrast to approaches that focus on our thinking as our primary source of knowledge about ourselves.
