Leadership is rarely tested in calm, spacious moments. It is tested when pressure is visible, time is short, and emotions are running high.

In those moments, emotional intelligence becomes a practical leadership skill rather than a nice-to-have. The ability to notice what is happening internally, regulate your response, and choose how you show up can make the difference between clarity and friction, trust and defensiveness, progress and stall.

This conversation with Jasmin Guthmann, VP Composable Consulting at Accenture Song and Community Chair at MACH Alliance, focuses on emotional intelligence where it matters most: difficult conversations, challenged decisions, and moments where others are looking to you for steadiness.

Expect a session that feels practical rather than theoretical, engaging rather than passive, and immediately applicable to real leadership challenges.

As usual, this session is designed as a conversation rather than a presentation. There will be plenty of space for questions, shared experiences, and discussion of real-world challenges from the group.

Sign up below and we’ll send you the calendar invite within 24 hours. If you can’t make it, we will record the session so that you can enjoy it later. Everyone who has signed up will get notified when the recording and summary is published.

Finally, feel free to share this call invitation with a colleague or friend who’d enjoy it too.
