What is Emotional Intelligence?
According to Daniel Goleman, psychologist
and author of Emotional Intelligence,
defines emotional intelligence as “the ability
to motivate oneself and persist in the face
of frustrations, to control, impulse, and
delay gratification, to regulate one’s moods
and keep distress from swamping the ability
to think, to empathize, and to hope.”
What is Emotional Intelligence?

• Peter Salovey, a psychologist from Yale


University who showed how intelligence
can be brought to our emotions.
• Later on Salovey was joined by John
Mayer, a psychologist from the University
of New Hampshire, in formulating
emotional intelligence.
Salovey identified five domains of EI, namely:
1. Knowing one’s emotions or self-awareness
- Self-awareness brings with it the skill for
self-reflection.
- According to Mayer, when one recognizes
this emotion, there is also a desire to get
rid of it or get out of that situation.
2. Managing emotions
- Goleman points out that we often have very
little or no control when an amotion occurs
and what this emotion will be, but we can
have control on how long an emotional will
last.
- It is important to recognize an emotion and
experience it, but dwelling on it, particularly
if it is negative, is not healthy.
3. Motivating oneself

- Research studies have shown that hope is a


major indicator of emotional intelligence.
- Goleman points out that optimism is a great
motivator, and like hope, it provides a
person with expectations that things will turn
out better or right, when faced with
adversity.
4. Recognizing emotions in others

- The capacity to recognize the emotions in


other people is called empathy. According to
Goleman, the root cause of our capacity to
empathize is self-awareness.
- If a person does not receive empathy from
others, the tendency is not to have empathy
for others as well is called attunement.
5. Handling Relationships
- Emotional intelligence is also evident in the
way we manage our relationships with
others.
4 Components of Social Intelligence:
1. Organizing groups
2. Negotiating solutions
3. Personal connection
4. Social analysis
