Welcome to the Emotional Intelligence (EQ) playlist.
Here you will learn what emotional intelligence is and will get familiar with its core parts.
To start with, Emotional Intelligence (otherwise known as emotional quotient or EQ) is the ability to understand, use, and manage your own emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict. EQ gained popularity in the 1995 best-selling book "Emotional Intelligence", written by science journalist Daniel Goleman.
Daniel Goleman presented a mixed model that represented EQ as a wide array of competencies and skills that drive leadership performance. These are the following:
Self-awareness – the ability to know one's emotions, strengths, weaknesses, drives, values, and goals and recognize their impact on others while using gut feelings to guide decisions.
Emotion regulation – involves controlling or redirecting one's disruptive emotions and impulses and adapting to changing circumstances.
Self-motivation – being aware of what motivates them.
Empathy – considering other people's feelings especially when making decisions.
Social skills – managing relationships to get along with others.
By completing the five tasks you will learn about each of the core skills, while the worksheets will help you to reflect on the knowledge received.
And the most exciting part - you will receive the EQ Master badge proving your skills in this exciting field!
Wanna learn about yourself before diving into the knowledge sea?
Empathy is an active attempt to understand other people's emotions, see things from their point of view, and imagine yourself in their place.
Healthy relationships often require compassion, attentiveness, and understanding of other people's thoughts and feelings. Therefore, the ability to communicate and understand each other's emotional states is the key to maintaining our relationships. By looking at things from other people's perspectives we gain an understanding of their values and beliefs and so helping you build a connection with them. Empathy is best built upon mutual understanding so it's important to open up your own feelings and life experiences. As well as helping you build a bond with other people empathizing with others, it also might aid you to regulate, and better understand your own personal emotions. Managing your own emotions is important in that it allows you to manage what you are feeling, even in times of great stress, without becoming overwhelmed.
The worksheet for this activity will provide you with the opportunity to better understand and recognize what is empathy and how it affects us.
