Meet Your Instructor

Jennifer Witherington is a leader in higher education who is on a mission to improve her own leadership skills and help others along the way. Jennifer is originally from Savannah, Georgia and has lived in Statesboro for the last ten years. She earned both a B.A. and M.Ed. from Armstrong State University and is currently writing her dissertation to complete a doctorate in Educational Leadership from Georgia Southern University this year. Jennifer serves as Senior Academic Dean at Ogeechee Technical College, where she has been employed for eleven years. Like all professionals, Jennifer has seen her share of good and bad bosses. Her professional successes and blunders led her to intentionally develop her own leadership skills, through formal and informal education and training.

People often say that the hardest part of being a leader is working with people. As leaders, we work with real people who have real feelings, thoughts, and personalities. Sometimes this can make our work more challenging. One way that we can all improve our leadership skills is through the development of our emotional intelligence. We invite you to join an interactive workshop designed to help you improve your emotional intelligence and make it work for you in the workplace.

People who have a high level of emotional intelligence are more confident, more capable, and earn greater respect from their colleagues. They are also better able to stay calm, flexible, and focused when workplace crises hit and panic threatens to set in.


What is Emotional Intelligence?

Emotional Intelligence is about what we say and do each day.  EI is the ability to recognize, understand, and manage your emotions and the emotions of others effectively. It affects how we manage behavior, work through social complexities, handle stress, and make personal decisions that achieve positive outcomes in both your personal and professional lives.
