  4. Before we move ahead please note that: • IQ means intelligence quotient • EQ means emotional quotient • EI means emotional intelligence • My website add is: www.eqindia.com www.eqindia.com

  5. WHAT ARE EMOTIONS ? • Happiness, fear, anger, affection, shame, disgust, surprise, lust, sadness, elation, love, frustration, anxiety, failure, achievement etc. The above are the emotions which directly affect our day-to-day life. There are TWO dimensions of emotions: Physiological side: ‘Emotion’ is a complex state of human mind, involving bodily changes of widespread character such as breathing, pounding heart, flushed face, sweating palms, pulse rate, gland secretions, etc. Psychological side, a state of excitement or perturbation marked by strong feelings. www.eqindia.com

  6. Emotions And Their Blends: • Anger: fury, outrage, resentment, annoyance, hostility. • Love: acceptance, friendliness, trust, kindness, infatuation. • Shame: guilt, remorse, humiliation, regret. • Fear: anxiety, nervousness, apprehension, terror. • Enjoyment: happiness, joy, relief, contentment, pleasure. • Sadness: Grief, sorrow, cheerlessness, gloom. • Surprise: Shock, astonishment, amazement wonder. lll www.eqindia.com

  7. Examples of Use Of Emotions: • She is too sensitive. • He takes everything too personally. • He is jealous of his colleagues. • My boss is always in a hostile mood. • She does not understand the feelings of others. • He is always nagging others. • The HOD blurts things out without thinking of others. • Nobody understands/listens to me. • The management is way out of touch with employee’s emotions. • Why does it happen with me only in life. • I am always nice with the people around me. The above statements refer to various emotions we experience in our day to day life. www.eqindia.com

  8. What Exactly Is EQ Emotional intelligence or Emotional Quotient is simply defined as: • knowing what feels good, what feels bad, and how to get from bad to good. • Knowing your emotions and knowing emotion of others. • It refers to emotional management skills which provide competency to balance emotions and reason so as to maximize long term happiness. www.eqindia.com

  9. Emotional Intelligence is “the capacity for recognizing our own feelings and those of others, for motivating ourselves, and for managing emotions well in ourselves and in our relationships. Emotional intelligence describes abilities distinct from, but complementary to, academic intelligence.” Daniel Goleman (1998) www.eqindia.com

  10. The Indian Perspective “Emotional intelligence is the ability of an individual to appropriately and successfully respond to a vast variety of emotional inputs being elicited from inner self and immediate environment. Emotional intelligence constitutes three psychological dimensions such as emotional competency, emotional maturity and emotional sensitivity, which motivate an individual to recognize truthfully, interpret honestly and handle tactfully the dynamics of human behaviour”.(Dalip Singh 2003) www.eqindia.com

  11. Are we giving EQ education in schools /colleges • NO. Our educational system gives stress on IQ and not on EQ. We are taught History, Hindi, English, Geography, Physics, anthropology, Botany, Computers, Medicine, Engineering etc. • We are not TAUGHT how to handle frustration, anxieties, stress, failure, depression, burnout, inferiority complexes, ego problems • We are not told to learn how to manage emotions i.e.; interaction, coordination, Adjustment, communication We are expected to learn all these from our parents, peer group of other role models At the later stages of our lives we are told to master emotional competencies to be successful. www.eqindia.com

  12. IQ v/s EQ(Intelligence Quotient v/s Emotional Quotient) • The research shows that IQ can help you to be successful to the extent of 20 percent only in life. The rest of 80 percent success depends on your EQ 20% IQ 80% EQ www.eqindia.com

  13. WHAT IS “SUCCESS” • Is it your IQ: Exams passed, competitions cleared, percentage of marks in schools and colleges,academic qualifications etc • Earning fat salary, top positions in workplace, being rich and wealthy, powerful,dominating, being influential etc www.eqindia.com

  14. OR SUCCESS IS SOMETHING ELSE • The word "success" is a relative term • Living a healthy and happy married life may be an indicator of success for some. • Reaching a top position in carrier may be an indicator of success for others • For some having a satisfying job life or personal satisfaction may be an indicator of success • Only the tangible achievements may not be indicators of success in life. Many a times non-tangible performance or achievements may be termed as successful. www.eqindia.com

  33. SOME MYTHS/FACTS ABOUT EQ • Being EI does not mean a weak, submissive or defensive personality. • Being highly EI does not not mean being extra nice, polite or sugar coating your language • The females are NOT superior to males in expressing/experiences emotions as most of us tend to believe incorrectly. In fact, the research shows that males are equally emotional when compared to females. • There is no direct evidence to prove that EQ is dependent upon heredity. • However, the environment does seem to influence the EQ. www.eqindia.com

  34. Myths….. • Advocating EQ does not mean that we are promoting low scorers or average IQ people. • Having average EQ is not bad or undesirable • Having high EQ is always welcome. • We are not negating the IQ. In fact a combination of high EQ and high IQ would be a most ideal personality. It would be a win win situation. www.eqindia.com

  35. CAN EQ BE DEVELOPED? • YES.You can develop your EQ by upgrading your emotional skills. The popular thinking that EQ is entirely inherited is incorrect. Emotional Intelligence is not fixed at birth. There is no emotional intelligence genes as such that we know of today. It is something one has learned. www.eqindia.com

  36. Conted…….. Can EQ be developed at any stage/age of personal or professional life. The answer is YES. You can upgrade your emotional skills at any stage of your life. In fact, age and maturity are positively correlated with the EQ. Same is not true about IQ which is more or less static. www.eqindia.com

  37. Can EQ Be Measured? YES. Though some critics may argue that emotional traits can not be measured accurately the psychologists have shown that EI can be measured by using standardized scientific tools. www.eqindia.com
