Lately across the MG globe, we have been taking extra steps to educate about the power of emotional intelligence (EQ). Seems it’s on a lot of people’s minds as we see, hear, and experience ourselves…strong emotions. This article provides yet another angle on how important EQ is:
In the past, it was thought that people with higher IQ would outperform people with lower IQ…(but), research showed that people with higher IQ outperformed people with lower IQ only about 20% of the time, while people with lower IQ outperformed people with higher IQ 70% of the time…Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize one’s emotions and the emotions of others and to manage those emotions to achieve more effective results. You could simply ask yourself, “In a moment of high or negative emotion, do I have my feelings or do they have me?”
