WARNING
....YOU SHOULD KNOW...

Emotional intelligence does not involve being overly emotional,
sympathetic, or weak.

On the contrary, it means being fully self-aware, accountable and assertive in your
actions. It also involves being aware of other’s emotions and what is driving them.

This presentation is for innovative thinkers, leaders, and people
who want to be accountable for their own success.


515 Senior Executives from
Latin America, Germany, &
Japan were analyzed by Egon
Zehnder.


The analysis revealed,
those with strong EQ were more likely to
succeed then those who were strongest in relevant
experience and IQ.


Did you know?


Managers with higher levels of
emotional intelligence......


Make better and faster
decisions.


Are likely to be held in higher
regard by their staff.


Are generally more effective
in their roles.


and are less likely to
be derailed in their
careers.


Sounds good right?


So what is
emotional
intelligence or
EQ (Emotional
Quotient)?


A brief history
stay with me for a moment.


Emotional Intelligence was developed when scientists
discovered their standard intelligence (IQ) measurements
were lacking in some areas.


In1983 the primacy of logic and reason is
challenged by Harvard professor, Howard
Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences.


Followed by Wayne Leon Payne’s 1985 doctoral
paper which introduced the idea that emotions
could be used intelligently.


In 1990, Salovey & Mayer reported this definition:
“Emotional Intelligence,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”


John D. Mayer Peter Salovey


Finally, Daniel Goleman’s 4 quadrants of EQ.
“Emotional Intelligence”- 1995


Simple enough right?


Ok, let’s simplify.


The foundation of Emotional Intelligence
is Self-Awareness.


To become self-aware you need to
acknowledge your feelings, your reactions,
and how often you are being 100% accountable
for you.


How is your emotional intelligence affecting
your personal & professional life?


How often are you
reacting rather then
responding?


So what’s in it for you?


Increased leadership abilities.


Better personal and
professional relationships.


A more accountable
and in control you.


Are you ready to increase
self-awareness and emotional intelligence?


Begin with self-awareness.
When you are feeling bad, ﬁnd out why?

Question your perspectives and judgements.
Look at facts, not emotional opinions.


Pay attention to
times when
you are reacting.
Why are you reacting?
Are you tired, hungry,
or of the belief that
your perspective is
the only one?


Understand that excellent
self-care is key.
Make sure you get rest, relieve stress, exercise, have fun, etc.


Wondering how YOU can get more emotional intelligence, and
ﬁnd more time, focus and success?

The Level 88 coaching model is designed to increase self-awareness and
focus on emotional intelligence.
