The Society of Emotional Intelligence (SoEI) seeks innovated session proposals that not only speak to the technical issues, but also provide context. Speakers should offer real-world examples, “war stories”, case studies, successes and failures, examples of actual tools and working papers and insights on emerging issues.
Sessions should be designed to encourage interactive audience participation by including small group discussions, exercises and other activities to interject energy and promote dialogue. SoEI is not looking for lectures, but rather innovative and exciting sessions. Proposal topics range from presenting evidence-based approaches to sharing unique viewpoints
