The Importance of Emotional Intelligence in UX
For years the field of UX has focused on methods, methodologies, techniques, artifacts, and deliverables. We have learned, however, that truly successful UX is not just about the work. The ability to interact, relate, and exchange with team members, stakeholders, clients, and leadership has proven to be even more important in some cases. For these reasons, the importance of soft skills (and more specifically, emotional intelligence or EQ) has become increasingly critical.
You'll learn:
- The challenges and issues EQ can help you overcome as a UX professional.
- How EQ can impact your projects.
- How EQ helps optimize relationships with stakeholders and teammates.
- The benefits EQ in personal and professional growth.
- Key EQ red flags that serve as identifiers for self growth or in one's teams.
You’ll leave this Master Class with a sound understanding of EQ, its role in UX and and its importance to practitioners and the discipline-at-large.

Can I take more than one course at a time?
With a Student membership, you can take a maximum of two courses at the same time. You can still take as many courses as you would like – free of extra charges – just as long as you finish or drop them so that you don’t have more than two ongoing courses.

I would like to get reimbursement for my Interaction Design Foundation membership. This membership can benefit our team and company in the following ways:
- I can enroll in all the IxDF’s self-paced, online courses (in my spare time), which will help me complete current projects with better results.
- I can network with peers from all over the world and find out how others have addressed issues we are currently facing.
- I will be able to continuously educate myself on UX topics through the IxDF's courses and eBooks.
- Because of the breadth of educational materials, I will learn how to solve specific design problems.
- I want to offer to share the key takeaways from the courses with my team.
I missed the enrollment, and now the course is closed. What can I do?
Don't worry if you missed the course. We will re-run it shortly. One of the reasons we continually open and close courses is in order to control the classroom size.
Networking is a large part of our value proposition, so we want just the right number of people inside the courses. That is also why we display the "XX % percent booked" on our course icons.
