This is based on extensive research – so we have to take it very seriously. Presently most of these programs are operating in corporate environments, only a few in schools. THDC is committed to bringing our expanded and highly effective version of the Emotional Intelligence (EI) training to both schools and parents.

The Cornerstone For Positive Change - Karen McCown
I am pleased to be here and to have this opportunity to speak with you about emotional intelligence, the important role it plays in our lives, and the expanded role it could play in our schools. I have three objectives for this talk:
1. To share with you my conviction that teaching emotional intelligence is a basic, core curriculum;
2. To define teaching emotional intelligence, and describe a program for doing so; and
3. To encourage you to become a catalyst and an advocate, a change agent, a driving force, and a resource for teaching emotional intelligence.
