Objectives
Emotional Intelligence, (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. Goleman described EI as “The ability to recognize our own feelings and those of others, to motivate ourselves and to properly manage relationships”.
In practical terms, a person who is emotionally intelligent is whose is capable to manage in a good way their emotions for achieving positive results in their relationships.
Empathy, motivational capacity, leadership…. There are some of the abilities which are used as indicators of EI.
On balance, EI plays a central role in the success or failure of any type of relationships: family, friendship, romantic and, also, in your work, where it can help you to achieve your career.
Through the next three lessons, we are going to focus on three of the abilities related to EI: empathy, assertiveness, and respect.
