Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize your emotions, understand what they're telling you, and realize how your emotions affect people around you. Emotional intelligence also involves your perception of others: when you understand how they feel, this allows you to manage relationships more effectively. People with high emotional intelligence are usually successful in most things they do. Why? Because they're the ones that others want on their team. When people with high EI send an email, it gets answered. When they need help, they get it. Because they make others feel good, they go through life much more easily than people who are easily angered or upset. 4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

8. Daniel Goleman, an American psychologist, developed a framework of five elements that define emotional intelligence: Self-Awareness People with high emotional intelligence are usually very self-aware. They understand their emotions, and because of this, they don't let their feelings rule them. They're confident because they trust their intuition and don't let their emotions get out of

control. They're also willing to take an honest look at themselves. They know their strengths and weaknesses, and they work on these areas so they can perform better. Many people believe that this selfawareness is the most important part of emotional intelligence. 4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

9. Self-Regulation This is the ability to control emotions and impulses. People who self-regulate typically don't allow themselves to become too angry or jealous, and they don't make impulsive, careless decisions. They think before they act. Characteristics of self-regulation are thoughtfulness, comfort with change, integrity, and the ability to say no. Motivation People with a high degree of emotional intelligence are usually motivated. They're willing to defer immediate results for long-term success. They're highly productive, love a challenge, and are very effective in whatever they do. 4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

10. Empathy Empathy is the ability to identify with and understand the wants, needs, and viewpoints of those around you.

They avoid stereotyping and judging too quickly, and they live their lives in a very open, honest way. 4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

They can manage disputes, are excellent communicators, and are masters at building and maintaining relationships. 4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

13. "In regard to measuring emotional intelligence I am a great believer that criterion-report (that is, ability testing) is the only adequate method to employ. Intelligence is an ability, and is directly measured only by having people answer questions and evaluating the correctness of those answers." --John D. Mayer 4/10/2013 Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
