From the VUCA to BANI era, we need professionals with greater emotional stability—individuals who can maintain a positive mindset even under immense pressure and in the face of uncertainty. This ability can be described in simpler terms as being "resilient," "tough," or "not easily broken." This “emotional management course” aims to help participants upgrade their emotional “operating system,” enabling emotions and rationality to work together efficiently. It also guides students through deep self-exploration and awareness, helping them to break free from emotional "sticking points" and enhance their ability to cope with pressure, all while maintaining a positive mindset in uncertain environments.

This "emotion management course" is to help students upgrade the operating system of "emotion", so that emotion and reason can cooperate efficiently and play a role together, and lead students to conduct in-depth self-inquiry and awareness, get out of the emotional "stuck" point, improve the ability to get along with pressure, and maintain a positive attitude in an uncertain environment.这门“情绪管理课”就是要帮助学员升级“情绪”这个操作系统，让情绪与理性高效配合，共同发挥作用，并带领同学们进行深度的自我探询与觉察，走出情绪“卡”点，提升与压力相处的能力，在不确定的环境中保持积极心态。

The sixth episode of the Interpreting the EU's Toolbox series will focus on the Forced Labour Regulation, which will likely be adopted in the coming months. The regulation will enable the EU authorities to investigate goods, supply chains, and manufacturers with suspected links to forced labour. Products made with forced labour will be banned from the EU’s internal market and intercepted at the EU’s borders. On Tuesday, 22nd October at 16:00, representatives from the European Commission will provide an overview of the Forced Labour Regulation. A representative of the International Labour Organization will then present its overall framework (conventions, standards and guidelines) pertaining to forced labour. Finally, Stuart Newman, Senior Advocacy & Engagement Advisor at amfori, will share best practices for companies on how to tackle forced labour across their supply chains.
