You already know what you should do.
The question is why it’s so hard to do it consistently.

Some days, something gets in the way.
You’re technically competent. Your track record is solid. But some days, something gets in the way.
You leave a conversation wishing you’d handled it differently. You react faster than you mean to. You’re short with people when you’re under pressure — and you know it, even while it’s happening.
It’s not that you don’t care about being a good leader. You do. It’s that in the moment, something else takes over.
That something else is what emotional intelligence helps you understand — and change.
Lead from your best self — more consistently
Not because you’re trying harder. Because you understand yourself better. You’ll understand the psychology behind why you are the way you are, know your triggers and your patterns, and have a set of practices to work with — not around — your own wiring.
INTRODUCING…
EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE (EI) FOUNDATIONS
8 MODULES · 4–6 WEEKS AT YOUR OWN PACE
EI Foundations gives you the language, the self-knowledge, and the practical tools to lead from your best self — more consistently. The first six modules take you from understanding to practice. Two more bring it home:
Module 7 — The Stages of Competency. Where you are in your development, and how to stay in the practice.
Module 8 — The EI Snapshot Assessment. A personalised profile of your strengths and growth areas — and a clear pointer to what’s next.
And you're not doing it alone. Every month, Ashley hosts a live Q&A for everyone in the course. Bring your questions. Can't make it? The replay is waiting in the course.
MODULE 1 — What is Emotional Intelligence?
Why EI predicts leadership effectiveness more than any other quality — and what it means in practice, not just in theory.
MODULE 2 — The Psychology of Why We Are the Way We Are
The deeper patterns that drive your default behaviour, where they came from, and why this is the first real step.
MODULE 3 — The Four EI Domains
The full model — self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship management — and how each shows up day to day.
MODULE 4 — How Your Brain Works Under Pressure
What’s happening neurologically when you react — and three techniques to interrupt the pattern.
MODULE 5 — Recognising Your Patterns and Triggers
Map your early warning signs so you catch yourself before you say or do something you’ll need to walk back.
MODULE 6 — EI in Leadership Moments
Apply the model to real situations — giving feedback, being challenged, sitting with someone’s difficulty.
WHERE THIS LEADS
EI Foundations is the entry point to the Transilient Leadership™ suite. The natural next step is Above & Below the Line, which builds directly on what you learn here.
From there, Transilient by Design takes the same self-knowledge into a hard season — how to recover, and then re-aim. More courses in the Lead Yourself line are on the way.
I’M ASHLEY.
I’m Ashley Chase, co-founder of Transilience Partners and an ICF PCC-certified executive coach. I’ve spent the past 25 years working with leaders across government, crown corporations, and the private sector — in one-to-one and team coaching, course development and delivery, and leadership development.
The Transilient Leadership™ courses are built on what I’ve seen actually work over those 25 years. Not theory borrowed from academic papers, but frameworks my clients have used in real boardrooms, real difficult conversations, and real moments of professional pressure.
This is the work I do every day with my coaching clients. I’ve built these courses so that more leaders and their teams can access them — at their own pace, in their own time.
IS THIS COURSE RIGHT FOR YOU?
This course is for leaders who are technically strong and want to grow their human side. It’s especially suited to leaders who:
- Work in the private sector, public service, or crown corporations
- Are managing people for the first time, or leading more senior teams than before
- Know they have blind spots — they’re just not sure what they are yet
- Want something grounded in evidence, not just inspiration
This is not a beginner course dressed up as leadership development. It’s substantive, self-paced, and built for leaders with real demands on their time and judgment.
