SUMMARY:Emotional Intelligence Special Interest Group: What AI Can’t Replace
DESCRIPTION:Emotional Intelligence Special Interest Group\nWhat AI Can’t Replace: The Business Case for EQ and the Coach’s Role in Building it\nTuesday, August 25 at 11:00am – 12:30pm PT\nFacilitated by Joshua Freedman, CEO and Co-founder of Six Seconds\n\nAs AI takes over more of what we used to call “smart,” the uniquely human capacities—self-awareness, empathy, connection, judgment under pressure—are becoming the real differentiator for leaders and the real frontier for coaches. Yet most organizations still treat emotional intelligence as a “nice to have,” even as disengagement drains trillions from the global economy and erodes the trust on which performance depends.\nIn this interactive session, Josh Freedman—CEO of Six Seconds and author of Emotion Rules—makes the data-backed business case for emotional intelligence and shows why it’s the leadership capability AI can’t replicate. More importantly, he’ll explore how coaches carry this work forward: helping clients see EQ as measurable and learnable, connecting it to the outcomes their organizations care about, and extending its ripple effects far beyond any single conversation.\nCoaches will leave with the knowledge and skills to:\nMake the business case in numbers they can actually use — the evidence linking EQ to engagement, retention, decision quality, and profitability, framed as language that lands with skeptical clients and stakeholders.\nReframe AI as the reason EQ matters more, not less — understand the shift that makes emotional intelligence the distinguishing human capability in an automated world, and how to position coaching around it.\nShow that EQ is measurable and learnable — see how a measure → develop → re-measure approach turns “soft skills” into visible, trackable growth that clients and their organizations can believe in.\nUnderstand the coach’s leverage in the larger system — how developing one leader’s emotional intelligence ripples outward into teams, climate, and culture.\nTake a practical frame into their next session — at least one model or practice to apply immediately to help clients understand, embrace, and leverage emotions as a source of insight and connection.\n0.5 Core Competency + 1.0 Resource Development CCE credits\n
