Session 02: The Intelligence That Matters Now

Leading in the Age of AI: Why Emotional Intelligence Is Your Unfair Advantage


Every high-stakes decision you make runs through your nervous system before it reaches your mind.
Most leaders have spent their entire career developing their analytical thinking, their strategic instincts, their ability to process information faster than the person next to them. Those skills matter. But they're not what determines how you show up in the moments that actually define your leadership
Think about the last time a conversation went sideways.

🟦 A decision felt off but you couldn't articulate why.
🟦 A room shifted and you missed it.
🟦 A relationship deteriorated slowly and you didn't see it coming.
Those weren't failures of intelligence. They were failures of a different kind of intelligence; one that processes what's happening between people, beneath the surface, before the words are said.
In a world where AI can already outperform humans on many analytical tasks , this is the intelligence that cannot be replicated. The read of a room. The trust built through a hard conversation. The judgment call that requires not just data but wisdom. The ability to lead people through uncertainty with presence and genuine human connection.
This isn't about being more empathetic. It's about being a more complete and more powerful leader.
For: Founders, executives, and senior leaders who want to develop the one leadership capacity that compounds over time — that gets stronger the more you use it, and that no technology will ever replace.

What You'll Leave With:

A practical map of the five core emotions we work with in Conscious Leadership — and the intelligence each one provides

The process of congruence — how to move feelings through to completion so they stop driving your decisions from the background

A body-based practice you can use before your most important conversations, negotiations, and decisions

An honest Q&A with Joyce and Rachel on how emotional intelligence has been their greatest competitive advantage as founders and leaders

A Rare & Exclusive Opportunity to Learn from One of the World’s Top Conscious Leadership Coaches - Live in Singapore 🇸🇬

Joyce Chen is flying in from the U.S. exclusively for this workshop
✨ She coaches some of the most influential business leaders and founders in the U.S. and globally.
✨ Her clients range from high-growth startup founders to Fortune 500 executives —leaders who are shaping industries and cultures.

This is a one-time opportunity to learn directly from one of the world’s top Conscious Leadership coaches.



Joyce Chen, Conscious Leadership Coach

Joyce Chen is a force of transformation—equal parts strategist, storyteller, and truth-teller. She works with high-impact executives, creative visionaries, and industry disruptors who aren’t here to play by the old rules. She partners with leaders who see what’s possible but need a powerful catalyst to bring it to life.

A former tech executive, Joyce spent decades leading in fast-paced, high-stakes environments—including as Global Head of Production at Meta. She’s worked with leaders at companies like Adobe, Apple, Airbnb, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Salesforce, and Sony, giving her a deep understanding of the challenges at the top. But she’s not just about strategy—she helps leaders rewire how they think, make decisions, and lead with radical clarity and presence.

Joyce’s coaching is a masterful mix of deep empathy and incisive challenge. She doesn’t just shift perspectives—she dismantles outdated patterns, revealing the unconscious stories that hold leaders back. Her work is about more than leadership; it’s about self-liberation. She helps clients navigate uncertainty, step into their full power, and take radical responsibility for their impact.
