      Chapter 1: Understanding Emotional Intelligence and How to Use It

      Emotional intelligence (EI) has gained popularity over the past few decades, as people have increasingly utilized this knowledge to enhance their professional and interpersonal skills. But what exactly is emotional intelligence?

      Explaining Emotional Intelligence

      When delving into the concept of emotional intelligence, it can be simplified to something quite straightforward. Emotional intelligence, also known as EI, encompasses your ability to understand people, their motivations, emotions, and feelings, as well as collaborate effectively with them. EI also involves self-awareness regarding your own emotions and how skilled you are at recognizing and understanding them. It includes your capacity to accurately identify your various emotions and assign them suitable labels, your ability to use this information to comprehend your thoughts and behaviors, and your skill in regulating and adapting your emotional state to fit your surroundings.

      Many experts consider EQ, or emotional quotient, to be more valuable than an individual’s IQ. EQ is believed to be a predictor of success, the quality of relationships, and overall happiness.

      There are three models of emotional intelligence, each providing a unique perspective on EI.

      The Ability Model

      The ability model encompasses how you perceive, utilize, and understand emotions to facilitate personal growth. Within the ability model, there are four components:

      Perceiving Emotions: Your proficiency in discerning emotions from facial expressions, images, and vocal cues is foundational to emotional intelligence, as identifying emotions is the initial step in processing them.

      Using Emotions: High emotional intelligence allows you to harness the power of your emotions for critical thinking and problem-solving, while also exercising control over your emotions for personal benefit.

      Understanding Emotions: Understanding emotions involves being attuned to subtle shifts in people’s emotional states and being able to articulate how these emotions evolve over time, both in others and within yourself.

      Managing Emotions: The ability to regulate your emotions is crucial for emotional intelligence. To be emotionally intelligent, you must grasp how to channel your emotions and regulate them to achieve your objectives, recognizing the connection between negative emotions and motivation.

      Critics argue that this model lacks validity in the workplace, but it offers the advantage of objective performance comparison rather than relying on self-descriptive statements.

      The ability model assesses your EI using a test similar to an ability-based IQ test. This test evaluates your competence in each of the aforementioned facets and provides an overall score. The beauty of scoring on an ability test is that there are no definitively correct answers.

      Mixed Model

      In 1995, Daniel Goleman introduced the mixed model, which comprises five primary constructs: self-awareness, self-regulation, social skills, empathy, and motivation. Each category encompasses distinct emotional competencies that can be learned and refined over time. Emotional competencies are not innate but can be cultivated, aligning with the growth mindset. Despite criticisms, various reports attest to the effectiveness of this model in the workplace.

      The mixed model employs two measurement tools: the emotional competency inventory (ECI) and the emotional intelligence appraisal.

      The ECI, established in 1999 with a newer version in 2007, gauges behavior within emotional and social competencies.

      The emotional intelligence appraisal, created in 2001, enables individuals to self-assess or undergo a 360° evaluation of their emotional intelligence.

      Trait Model

      The trait model, under development for several years, has been featured in numerous publications. It pertains to an individual’s perception of their emotional capabilities and is measured through self-report rather than a comparison of actual abilities. The trait model serves as a tool to explore an individual’s personality framework and is a generalized model.

      Historical Background of Emotional Intelligence

      The term emotional intelligence first appeared in a paper by Michael Beldoch in 1965. In 1966, B. Leaner referenced EI in a paper titled Emotional Intelligence and Emancipation. Wayne Payne’s 1985 doctoral thesis, A Study of Emotion: Developing Emotional Intelligence, contributed to the development of the concept. In 1987, the term EQ, or emotional quotient, was introduced in an article by Keith Beasley in the British Mensa magazine. Stanley Greenspan refined the EI model, followed by Peter Salovey and John Mayer as key contributors. Daniel Goleman’s 1995 book introduced emotional intelligence to a wider audience, despite subsequent criticisms, and numerous reports have highlighted its practicality in the workplace.

      Why is Emotional Intelligence Essential?

      Emotional intelligence isn’t limited to those in frequent interpersonal roles; it holds universal significance. When examining the advantages and significance of emotional intelligence, one realizes its vital role in achieving life balance. Numerous aspects of our lives are influenced by our emotional intelligence.

      Physical Well-being

      How effectively can you care for your physical health? Your capacity to manage stress is intricately linked to your emotional intelligence. To maintain good health and effectively handle stress, it’s imperative to be conscious of our emotional state and how we react to the stress we encounter.

      Mental Health

      Emotional intelligence profoundly impacts our attitudes and overall perspective on life. Increased self-awareness can alleviate anxiety, prevent depression, and mitigate mood swings. Heightened emotional
