WHAT IS EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE MADE OF?

WHAT IS EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE MADE OF?
Emotional intelligence comes down to four important skills.
The First Two Skills Focus On You:

(1) Self-Awareness - Your ability to accurately perceive your emotions and stay aware of them as they happen. This includes keeping on top of how you tend to respond to specific situations and certain people.

(2) Self-Management - Your ability to use awareness of your emotions to stay flexible and positively direct your behavior. This means managing your emotional reactions to all situations and people.

The Last Two Skills Focus More On Your Contact With Other People:

(3) Social Awareness - Your ability to accurately pick up on emotions in other people and get what is really going on. This often means understanding what other people are thinking and feeling, even if you don't feel the same way.

(4) Relationship Management - Your ability to use awareness of your emotions and the emotions of others to manage interactions successfully. Letting emotional awareness guide clear communication and effective handling of conflict.

WHAT DOES EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE LOOK LIKE?

The four parts of the emotional intelligence model are based upon a connection between what you see and what you do with yourself and others.
