The Human Resources Department and the Psychotherapy Application and Research Center (IPAM) collaborated to organize a comprehensive seminar on the importance of emotional intelligence in the workplace and its effective use for our university staff. The seminar was conducted by Clinical Psychologist Ayşenur Bayraktar on Tuesday, October 14, 2025.
The seminar focused on recognizing and managing emotions effectively, as well as understanding how emotional intelligence can be identified and utilized in the workplace. Additionally, the development of healthy communication techniques, strategies to enhance collaboration, and methods to maintain emotional balance in stressful work environments were discussed.
The interactive nature of the seminar allowed participants to share their personal experiences, engage in group discussions, and immediately apply what they had learned. Participants gained practical insights into developing their emotional intelligence and discovered ways to create a more effective working environment, both individually and within teams.
At the end of the seminar, Ayşenur Bayraktar was presented with a Certificate of Appreciation by Nilay Yıldıran, the Head of the Human Resources Department.
