Welcome

Most organizations believe their employees are an important company asset, but don’t recognize the ‘missing ingredient.’ EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE (EQ) is the missing ingredient.

What exactly is EQ? Emotional Intelligence refers to the personal characteristics and social abilities that are critical for success at work. This is particularly true for those in a management role. According to one study, 50% of work satisfaction is determined by the relationship a worker has with his or her immediate boss.

For example, EQ means:

Self-awareness: discovering 'blind spots;' recognizing personal strengths and limitations
Self-regulation: developing self-control to keep emotions and impulses in check
Social Competence: developing relationships marked by trust, empathy, direct communication, and the ability to cooperate with others to get things done

In complex work environments and high-IQ professions, Emotional Intelligence accounts for up to 80% of the variance in differentiating top performers from average performers. The abilities that distinguish outstanding supervisors in technical fields are not technical, but rather skills that relate to handling people.
