A definition “ Emotional Intelligence is the measure of an individual’s abilities to recognise and manage your emotions, and the emotions of other people, both individually and in groups.”
In 1995, psychologist and science journalist Daniel Goleman published a book introducing most of the world to the emerging concept of emotional intelligence. The idea--that an ability to understand and manage emotions greatly increases our chances of success, this quickly took off, and it went on to greatly influence the way people think about emotions and human behaviour.
Many of us are aware of IQ (Intelligence Quotient), designed to measure intellectual intelligence. Higher IQ’s indicate better cognitive abilities or the ability or learn and understand. People with higher IQ’s are more likely to do well academically without exerting the same amount of mental effort as those with lover IQ scores. A logical assumption, therefore, is that people with higher IQs will be more successful at work and through life.
This assumption has been proven incorrect – there is more to success that simply being ‘clever’. There is no correlation between IQ and EQ scores. In other words, academic aptitude has no connections with how people understand and deal with their emotions and the emotions of others. It makes perfect sense, we have all met very clever people who nonetheless had no idea how to deal with people, and the reverse.
Why attend this training - The Benefits?
People with higher emotional intelligence find it easier to form and maintain interpersonal relationships and to ‘fit in’ to group situations. They are also better at understanding their own psychological state, which can include managing stress effectively and being less likely to suffer from depression. Working on your emotional intelligence could well be the most important aspect of your personal development. Research has shown that people with higher levels of emotional intelligence enjoy a more satisfying and successful careers and relationships. If you think about ways to enhance your emotional intelligence you are likely to become more charismatic, interesting and attractive to others, and you will also give your self-esteem a boost.
