This course is the course to end all naysayers of emotions...

"This course is the course to end all naysayers of emotions do not belong in the workplace. I have heard that statement for years the reality is we are all human beings and we are made of a variety of emotions we experience on a daily basis that can change from moment to moment, from each interaction we experience, this course gives us the opportunity to not only know ourselves better but also the ability to know others, to build trust and rapport with each other and build real understanding and practice empathy which creates genuine connections with people. It is all about humanizing the workplace because it is the right thing to do and today the most critical thing to do to create psychological safe environments. Personally I cannot wait to get started and ride the elephant!"


 – Jennifer N.

What we now know about emotions

Most people underestimate the influence emotion has on the culture of their teams. People focus on values and behaviours and ignore emotions at work. But there is increasing evidence to show that the emotional culture of an organisation influences employee satisfaction, burnout, absenteeism, teamwork and team performance, and ultimately financial performance.

The Emotional Culture Deck is a simple yet powerful and flexible tool for creating face-to-face conversations about culture and leadership within any organisation or team. It will help you drive bottom-up change in your teams.

Join the thousands of leaders who have already transformed their teams and organisations with The Emotional Culture Deck.

Enrol in The ECD Online Masterclass today and take the first step toward building a more connected and engaged workplace.

Graduate Stories...

"Firstly, I love card decks. Secondly, I love emotions. Thirdly, I love facilitating workshops. The ECD felt like it was made for me. The lessons were spaced out just right for my schedule.

- Patricia H.

"The ECD Online Masterclass Course enabled me to fully understand the concept of emotional culture and the research that backs up this incredibly innovative and easy to use tool - a tool that I believe can unlock teams in a way that cannot be unlocked by any other tool. Incredibly insightful!"

Meet Your Instructor, 
Jeremy Dean. 

Founder of riders&elephants and The Emotional Culture Deck.

Jeremy created The Emotional Culture Deck. He spent five years honing the art of emotional culture conversations using The ECD and developing this Masterclass Course, using The ECD with teams at Xero, New Zealand Rugby, Panasonic, Westpac, Kiwibank and IAG.

The live ECD Masterclasses he conducted in Sydney, Melbourne, Chicago, New York, London, Auckland, Wellington and Toronto were all sold out. He pivoted and created The ECD Online Masterclass when we entered a Covid world in 2020. This now means there are no barriers to anyone completing the Masterclass, joining our global community of passionate leaders and learners, and becoming part of a network that shares a commitment to cultivating exceptional emotional cultures and re-humanising the places we work. 

Over 1000 leaders have now completed this Online Course, diving into Jeremy's knowledge about The ECD and emotional culture - several years and thousands of hours worth of development and practice built on hundreds of workshops have been used to design and create this Online Masterclass.
