問題詳情

第二篇:Emotional Intelligence: Important for SuccessInterest in emotion psychology and the concept of emotional intelligence really caught fire with the 1995publication of Daniel Goleman’s book Emotional Intelligence: Why it can Matter More Than IQ. In the popular book,Goleman argued that emotional intelligence could be just as important, if not even more so, at predicting success inlife. These emotional competencies, he argued, also played a particularly important role in the workplace.The concept quickly caught the attention of the public, including human resource managers and businessleaders. Researchers have suggested that emotional intelligence influences how well employees interact with theircolleagues. EQ is also thought to play a role in how workers manage stress and conflict as well as overallperformance on the job.Studies have shown that employees with higher scores on measures of EQ also tend to be rated higher onmeasures of interpersonal functioning, leadership abilities, and stress management. Other studies have linked higheremotional intelligence with better job satisfaction as well as overall job performance.Goleman suggested that while traditional intelligence was a quality associated with leadership success, it alonewas not enough. People who are successful at work aren’t just smart - they also have a strong amount of emotionalintelligence.But emotional intelligence is not something just for CEOs and senior managers. It’s a quality that is importantat every level of a person’s career, whether you are a college student looking for an internship or a seasonedemployee taking on a leadership role. If you want to succeed in the workplace and move up the career ladder,emotional intelligence is critical to your success.
