3. What is Emotional Intelligence?
Emotional Intelligence (EQ or EI) is a term
created by two researchers – Peter Salavoy
and John Mayer – and popularized by Dan
Goleman in his 1996 book of the same
name. It is defined as the ability to:
The ability to be aware of, name,
and manage one’s emotions
The ability to be aware of, name, and
understand other’s emotions
The ability to relate to others in
effective ways both personally and
professionally
In practical terms, this means being aware
that emotions can drive our behavior and
impact people (positively and negatively),
and learning how to manage those emotions
– both our own and others – especially when
we are under pressure.
