4. SECTION 1
UNDERSTANDING EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

5. DEFINITION
The term emotional intelligence was officially coined in
1990 by Salovey and Mayer
Emotional Intelligence/Quotient is “the capacity for
recognizing our own feelings and those of others, for
motivating ourselves, and for managing emotions well
in ourselves and in our relationships. Emotional
intelligence describes abilities distinct from, but
complementary to, academic intelligence.”
- Daniel Goleman (1998)

6. What is Emotional Intelligence?
Emotional intelligence is not about being nice all the
time.
It is about being honest.
Emotional intelligence is not about being “touchy-
feely.”
It is about being aware of your feelings, and those of
others.
Emotional intelligence is not about being emotional.
It is about being smart with your emotions.

7. IQ VS EQ
•IQ and emotional intelligence attempt to measure
different forms of human intelligence
• these measures make up an individual’s psyche.

8. IQ has no connection with how people
understand and deal with their emotions and
the emotions of others (EI).
Some people have high IQs and low emotional
intelligence and vice versa, while some people
score highly on both and some do not.

9. CORRELATION BETWEEN IQ AND EI SCORES.
IQ helps you to be successful to the extent of 20 percent
only in life.
The rest of 80 percent success depends on your EQ.

embarrassment, joy, contentment, or any other number
 Get in the habit of tapping into your emotions at certain
times every day

connected to something that's happening in your world.
Example
 if you feel bitterly envious, what is that emotion telling you about
your situation?
 Fully experience positive emotions, too

45. 5)Notice patterns in your emotional history.

46. When you have a strong emotion, ask yourself when you
last felt like this. What happened before, during and after?
 Observe how you handled a certain situation before, and
how you'd like to handle it next time.

47. 6)Practice deciding how to behave.
 You can't help what emotions you feel, but you can decide
how you want to react to them
 Decide to communicate your feelings instead of repressing
them, or get up and try again instead of throwing in the towel.
 Don’t turn to escapist habits.

easier to deal with conflicts in a calm and self-
assured manner

you would, consider why this is?

•Empathy means being able to recognize how other people
are feeling, and share emotions with them

50. •Being a more active listener and really paying attention to
what people are saying
•By expressing empathy, you also create empathy in
others

51. “If people will stop for a moment and put
themselves in another person’s shoes…
it will help them modify their
own behavior. It will help
them develop relationships
with those people.”
Darryl Grigg, Ed.D.

American Express Emotional Competence Program

expressions and other body language.

obvious ways that people communicate their emotions.

53. 4) See the effect you have on others

battle when it comes to EQ

other people

angry?
 What happens to conversation when you walk in the
room?
 change your attitude so that you have a better emotional
effect on people.

55. 5)Practice being emotionally honest
 Practice being more physically open with your emotions, so
people can read you better.

they'll trust you
