  9. Anyone can be angry – that is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose and in the right way – that is not easy. Aristotle

  10. What is Emotional Intelligence (EI)? “Achieving one’s goals through the ability to manage one’s own feelings and emotions…. being sensitive to and able to influence other key people …... ……being able to balance one’s motives and drives with conscientious and ethical behaviour.” Dulewicz & Higgs

  11. History lesson! When psychologists began to write and think about intelligence, they focused on cognitive aspects, such as memory and problem-solving. However, there were researchers who recognized early on that the non-cognitive aspects were also important. For instance, DavidWechsler defined intelligence as “the aggregate or global capacity of the individual to act purposefully, to think rationally, and to deal effectively with his environment.” (1958)

  12. Intelligence Research • Traditional View: Intelligence was fixed, general, and primarily academic. It could be measured by an IQ test. This view of intelligence had profound and damaging effects on: • Pupil motivation • Relationships between teachers & pupils. • Success for some based on ‘how smart I am’. • The assessment system. • Teacher expectations. • The way schools and classrooms were organised.

  13. Original IQ test • Linguistic skills • Analytical skills • Spatial orientation • Logical reasoning

  14. Revised IQ test 1 Linguistic 2 Mathematical/Logical 3 Visual/Spatial 4 Musical 5 Physical 6 Interpersonal 7 Intrapersonal

  15. How useful is IQ? IQ by itself is not a very good predictor of job performance. Hunter and Hunter (1984) estimated that at best IQ accounts for about 25 percent of the variance. Sternberg (1996) has pointed out that studies vary and that 10 percent may be a more realistic estimate. In some studies, IQ accounts for as little as 4 percent of the variance.

  16. How useful is IQ? • It turned out that social and emotional abilities were four times more important than IQ in determining professional success and prestige (Feist & Barron, 1996).

  17. Research……. • In fact, there is research suggesting that emotional and social skills actually help improve cognitive functioning. • Marshmallow studies. at Stanford University…..four year olds were asked to stay in a room alone with a marshmallow and wait for a researcher to return. They were told that if they could wait until the researcher came back before eating the marshmallow, they could have two. Ten years later the researchers tracked down the kids who participated in the study. They found that the children who were able to resist temptation had a total SAT score that was 210 points higher than those pupils who were unable to wait (Shoda, Mischel,& Peake, 1990).

  18. EI defined (Mayer-Salovey) Emotional intelligence is “the ability to perceive emotions, to access and generate emotions so as to assist thought; to understand emotions and emotional knowledge and to reflectively regulate emotions so as to promote emotional and intellectual growth” John D. Mayer & Peter Salov(1990)

  19. Goleman identified the five 'domains' of EQ as: • Knowing your emotions. • Managing your own emotions. • Motivating yourself. • Recognising and understanding other people's emotions. • Managing relationships, i.e., managing the emotions of others.

  20. Or more simply put… • How are you feeling? • How is she or he feeling? • How do you want to feel? • How do you want others to feel? • What is causing current feelings? • What will change them? • What are you willing and able to do to manage • your own and others’ emotions?
