History
editJim Liautaud co-founded the Institute in 2006.[2] Working with neuroscientists, psychologists, CEOs and researchers, Liautaud and his colleagues created a training program to quickly build successful intra-company teams.[7] In 2006, the Institute started to catalog the best social habits from high-performing managers. They broke down each practice into a sequence of steps and standardized them so that they could be certified, similar to the way the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) certifies the quality of goods and services.[2]
Approach
editThe EI Leadership Institute uses an approach called PDT (process-designed teams), applying the principles of Nobel Prize-winning economist Dr. Elinor Ostrom.[8] Their leadership forum program has shown a 23% increase in Emotional intelligence for participating executives over a two-year period.[9][10]
