Psychologist Daniel Goleman about the importance of emotional intelligence

Daniel Goleman, a doctor in psychology and leader in the field, says that more than half of a company's results are thanks to the emotional skills of its managers. This means that a leader who shows high emotional intelligence will easily motivate and positively drive upwards his or her team. According to TSW Goleman breaks down EQ into five components:

 

1. Self-awareness It enables us to raise our level of responsibility for our duties and decisions

 

2. Self-management means to say managing our emotions and controlling our impulses. It is the suitability to be responsible and to be neat in our work.

 

3. Awareness of others This skill permits us to develop talents as well as to keep an attitude of "service" to others.

 

4. Relationship management This competence will have an impact on influence with counterparts and the ability to convince.

 

5. Motivation. This is the passion to work for reasons other than money or status.

 

Goleman's research shows that EQ is more important in business than IQ. To motivate people, you need to inspire trust and be a positive influence.

 

According to Daniel Goleman, two-thirds of a company's results are due to the emotional skills of managers.
