Emotional Intelligence

Originally coined by two US psychologists, Peter Salovey and John Mayers, Emotional Intelligence refers to a learned ability to perceive, understand and express our feelings accurately and to control our emotions so that they work for us, not against us.

It is a different way of being smart.

Studies have shown it is a combination of particular personal and interpersonal skills that makes the difference. A pioneer study undertaken by Manila University in association with Reuven BarOn, the designer of the EQ-i, the first scientifically validated Emotional Quotient (EQ) test, showed that EQ accounted for 27% of the job success of front line bank employees, whereas IQ scores were shown to account for less than 6%.

According to Daniel Goleman, author of the most influential books on Emotional Intelligence, emotional intelligence becomes more and more important as people progress up the career ladder in their organisations. He estimates that in jobs in general it is twice as important for outstanding ability as technical skill and cognitive ability combined, but in leadership jobs four times as important. People who are able to be adaptable, to feel and project self-confidence and to be internally motivated are vital at the head of organisations.

Why do we need it right now ?

Some of the reasons:-

• Rising stress levels
• Greater need for self awareness and self managment
• Change  and Chaos – a regular feature in our lives
• Mid-career crisis – jobs for life are a thing of the past
• Talent Retention – people move jobs to get away from people – need high EI bosses
• Customers who expect more and want it now
• Jobs interviews seeking evidence of Who you are and what EI skills yo have
• Personal performance – lack of sustained high performance
• Global marketplace – increased competition and information overload
• Company changes – downsizing, restructuring and delayering
• Research and evidence showing that IQ + EQ = SUCCESS

Managing pressure is part and parcel of work and can help keep us feel challenged and motivated. When we can’t manage the pressure this can lead to stress, which undermines performance, is costly to employers and can make people ill.

Studies of 500 organisations worldwide indicate that people who score highest on EI measures rise to the top of organisations. – Fenman, Using Emotional Intelligence At Work
