| While
personality traits tend to be "hard wired" and are
not largely changeable in people, there is another dimension
governing human behavior that can be influenced. Many studies
evaluate it as more important than intellectual intelligence
in governing success in one's career. It is called Emotional
Intelligence (EQ). Basically, emotionally intelligent people
learn to be aware of their own emotional states that may be
influencing personal perception and behavior. Such high EQ
people can sense the emotional states in others and learn
how to control and influence them to improve the quality of
various human interactions. Unlike personality traits, EQ
skills can be learned, practiced and developed.
Prior
to the session, participants will take an on-line emotional
intelligence survey and receive their own EQ profile measuring
four dimensions of emotional intelligence.
