The document discusses emotional intelligence (EQ). 30-33% of employees admit to subpar work behaviors while 25% take long breaks. EQ is defined as recognizing one's behaviors/moods and managing them according to situations. Daniel Goleman popularized EQ in his 1995 book, describing it as self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management. Developing EQ can help with stressful situations, group conflicts, improving relationships and communication, gaining empathy and respect, and confidently managing emotions.
