Viewers see how forward-looking companies such as Nichols Aluminum and others, are accessing the power of EI to create better, more productive teams and team members. Through interviews with various employees, participants will see how EI competencies can be combined with other knowledge and technical capabilities to increase one's overall effectiveness on the job. Through the video and workshop, participants will learn the five EI competencies:
Viewers will come away with specific areas of improvement to focus on and a structured, step-by-step approach to developing the required emotional competencies to bring more creativity, energy and intuition to their work, whatever their industry or field. Includes: A 25 minute DVD or VHS, Leader's Guide, PowerPoint presentation on CD-ROM, 10 Participant Workbooks with EI Quiz and 10 Reminder Cards

 Released - 1997 Professor H. Kent Bowen of Harvard Business School discusses the state of American manufacturing. With Ben Wattenberg as devil’s advocate, Bowen presents economic arguments that counter the commonly held notion that American manufacturing has lost jobs to off-shore operations. Arguments include an increase in high-tech jobs due to computerization in many companies; the economic rebound of Chrysler, Motorola, Texas Instruments, and Intel; and the increase in corporations moving their manufacturing to the U.S. Bowen believes that outsourcing is a positive business strategy and calls for more creative use of the domestic workforce to reduce mass layoffs.
