Director, Ei4Change
“Transforming lives through the power of emotional intelligence and leadership.”
Who is Dr. Robin Hills?
With a deep-rooted passion for emotional intelligence, Dr. Robin Hills stands out as a leader who has dedicated his career to helping others unlock their potential. Holding an honorary Doctorate in Advanced Psychology, Robin is not just an expert—he’s a committed educator, coach, and advocate for emotionally intelligent leadership.
As the founder and director of Ei4Change, Robin has developed one of the world’s most recognized platforms for emotional intelligence education. His journey is driven by a simple yet powerful mission: to create meaningful, human-centered change in individuals and organizations alike.
The Making of a Leader
Robin’s leadership philosophy stems from personal experience. Early in his career, he worked under managers whose poor leadership left lasting impressions—not in a positive way. “It made me realize how leadership shapes experiences, motivation, and performance,” he reflects. That realization became the foundation for his work—turning challenging experiences into a lifelong pursuit of better leadership.
Career & Education
Robin began his academic journey with a degree in Biology from Durham University. He initially entered the healthcare industry, working as a medical representative in London. However, it was through navigating career transitions and overcoming setbacks that he discovered his true calling—emotional intelligence.
Today, his company Ei4Change is a globally awarded venture specializing in emotional intelligence training, especially within workplace settings.
What Sets Ei4Change Apart
“Unlike traditional education that focuses on logic and reasoning,” Robin explains, “emotional intelligence is about understanding people—something we learn through reflection, interaction, and experience.”
Ei4Change offers an extensive library of over 50 online courses covering every facet of emotional intelligence. With 500,000+ learners across 200 countries, their programs are accessible, inclusive, and designed for real-world application. Each course is filmed in HD, captioned for accessibility, and built to support learners with diverse needs, including those with visual or auditory impairments.
These courses are ideal for developing:
- Leadership and collaboration
- Communication and team dynamics
- Stress management and resilience
- Mindfulness, critical thinking, and decision-making
Real Impact, Real People
Robin shares a story of a client who initially believed their emotional intelligence was strong. “After the assessment, we found the opposite to be true. It took time for them to come to terms with it—but that awareness became the turning point for some truly powerful personal growth.”
Professional Accreditations
Robin holds certifications from the British Psychological Society in Occupational Ability and Personality assessments. He is qualified to work with tools like:
- MBTI (Steps I & II)
- DISC
- NEO Personality Inventory
- EQ-i 2.0 Emotional Intelligence Inventory
These tools help individuals and teams gain self-awareness, improve communication, and enhance performance in measurable ways.
Staying Ahead in a Changing World
Robin is constantly learning—attending conferences, staying active in global networks, and collaborating with fellow course creators to keep content fresh and relevant. His passion for the field drives Ei4Change to remain at the forefront of emotional intelligence training worldwide.

Looking to the Future
In an era where artificial intelligence is rapidly evolving, Robin sees emotional intelligence as more essential than ever. “AI can personalize learning and offer instant feedback,” he says, “but it lacks empathy. Real transformation requires human connection—and that’s where emotional intelligence plays a vital role.”
He adds, “Learners want more than a chatbot. They want to feel heard, supported, and guided by someone who understands.”
Ei4Change continues to shape emotionally intelligent leaders, offering tools that don’t just inform—but truly transform.
