Indeed, you can boost your emotional intelligence!
As I write in my article: What is Emotional Intelligence and Why do We Need It?,according to Dr.
Mayer, who co-developed a four branch model of it with Dr. Peter Salovey, emotional
intelligence is: \"the subset of social intelligence that involves the ability to monitor one's own
and others' feelings and emotions, to discriminate among them and to use this information to
guide one's thinking and actions\".
Today, Emotional Intelligence (EI or EQ) is considered to be even more important than IQ
(intelligence quotient).
This is true mostly because people with high EQ relate better to others, are more approachable,
tend to be open-minded and are therefore easier to work with - both in team environments or
on an individual basis.
Several studies have also demonstrated that those with high EQ scores are more self-confident,
trustworthy and likeable than those with low scores. They also make better leaders and
generally perform better in the work place.
Needless to say, a high Emotional Intelligence quotient contributes overall to increased
productivity and success. In fact, many companies give applicants EQ tests before hiring them,
while others have instituted EQ training programs.
Certainly, it is to everyone's benefit to increase, or boost his\/her Emotional Intelligence!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As you can see, there are several way you can begin to boost, or improve, your EQ. Doing so will
not only enhance your opportunities for success in the workplace, it will benefit you in your
personal and professional relationships.
Ultimately, Emotional Intelligence (EQ) entails understanding yourself and others, effectively
interacting with others, and then using those skills to strengthen your personal and professional
relationships.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
