The Challenge . . .
―We are being judged by a
NEW YARDSTICK; not just
how smart we are, or by our
training and expertise, but
also how well we handle
ourselves and each other.‖
Daniel Goleman, Ph.D. Founder, Emotional Intelligence Services

Emotions – The “NEW” Yardstick
We have been conditioned to keep emotions out of the work place. High IQ has been the standard.
However, study after study has demonstrated that high IQ doesn’t necessarily predict future success.
In fact, low Emotional Intelligence can shut down the IQ abilities you may have.

Why Should Leaders Develop EI?
Research has found…
20-25% of success can come from IQ
20-25% of success can come from competency/skill
development
50-60% of success can come from EI

In fact…
IQ is inadequate in predicting success in the real world; EI gives you an edge
What will distinguish an organization is its ability to use its people to attract and retain workers, to promote creativity and build client relationships.

Self-Awareness
Our ability to accurately recognize our emotions as they happen and understand how we respond to different people and situations.
![Page 11: Being an Emotionally Intelligent Leader...Being an Emotionally Intelligent Leader Employee Management Conference November 2011 The Challenge . . . ―We are being judged by a NEW YARDSTICK;](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5f55a2aafb59c64a722db044/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Self-Awareness
Try to discover why you react the way you do:
• Tune in to your emotions, self beliefs and self-talk.
• Understand your responses, why positive or negative.
• Why do you tend to react this way?
• Visualize yourself…what would you like to do differently?

Self-Regulation
Our response to our self-awareness. It is both restraining oneself and activating oneself.

Emotional Hijacking
Do Your Emotions Manage You…
OR
Do You Manage Your Emotions?
![Page 17: Being an Emotionally Intelligent Leader...Being an Emotionally Intelligent Leader Employee Management Conference November 2011 The Challenge . . . ―We are being judged by a NEW YARDSTICK;](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5f55a2aafb59c64a722db044/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Self-Regulation
Take the reins and quit letting your emotions
lead you around!
• Listen—always let others finish speaking
• Step back/reframe—envision a different response
• Positive ―mindset‖
(Be cautious of negative ―self talk‖)
• Strive to act intentionally rather than reactively.
• Anger—don’t deny it; reframe it; impose time out

Self-Motivation
Our ability to take responsibility for ourselves, and manage or overcome our weaknesses or setbacks.

me?‖ Instead, ask ―What can I fix?‖

If your emotional abilities aren't in hand, if
you don't have self-awareness, if you are not
able to manage your distressing emotions, if
you can't have empathy and have effective
relationships, then no matter how smart
you are, you are not going to get very far.
