The Father of EQ Reveals 12 Ways to Increase Your Emotional Intelligence
Take a line from Daniel Goleman and look in the mirror. See where your EQ score soars and what you need to work on.
While the term "emotional intelligence" was first defined in 1990 by psychologists John D. Mayer and Peter Salovey (the latter went on to become President of Yale), it took the 1995 release of Daniel Goleman's Emotional Intelligence to popularize the concept.
Like most lasting ideas, the importance of emotional intelligence seems obvious in hindsight. Research shows developing greater emotional intelligence can lead to higher performance and pay as well as better professional and personal relationships.
As Inc. colleague Justin Bariso defines it, emotional intelligence is the ability to make emotions work for and not against you.
The obvious part? The better you can understand and manage your emotions -- and the emotions of people around you -- the greater your chances of success.
Which means most of us feel like we're emotionally intelligent. After all, I (mostly) manage my emotions. And I'm sometimes able to both motivate and inspire other people, as well as talk them down from an emotional ledge.
But that doesn't mean I have high emotional intelligence -- which is why Goleman recently distilled emotional intelligence into four domains and 12 core competencies.
