Emotional Intelligence

What is Emotional Intelligence?

Emotional Intelligence is the ability to recognize, understand and express your emotions in ways that are respectful of self and others. It is a balance between the human aspects of emotion and cognition that result in better decisions and a healthier life. Emotional Intelligence in a phrase coined in 1990 by Salovey, Mayer and Caruso about the field of research on the emotions.

From “Executive EQ” by Robert Cooper, Ph.D. & Ayman Sawaf
Emotional Intelligence is the ability to sense, understand and effectively apply the power and acumen of emotions as a source of human energy, information and influence. EQ [like IQ except with emotions] motivates us to pursue our unique potential and purpose and activates our innermost values and aspirations, transforming them from things we think about to what we live.

Josh Freedman, Editor, EQ Today
EQ is the capacity to create positive outcomes in our relationships with ourselves and others. These learnable skills create joy, love and success of all kinds.
