In 1990, Emotional Quotient was introduced in the world market, affirming that a person’s ability to handle relationships and his ability to use the appropriate emotions in every interaction are much more important than a person’s intelligence quotient. It was agreed that Emotional Quotient is essential in creating a good leader.
A leader who has a high emotional quotient score is expected to be more positive in life. Emotional Quotient gives a person courage to stand again after a fall. Emotional Quotient gives person strength to face fear.
Being worried, always in doubt, accepting mistakes, and admitting mistakes are just some of the challenges a leader in a business will face. It is believed by many company owners that a team leader worthy of selection should possess high Emotional Quotient to be able to face these challenges.
A successful person lives his life through his values. He knows his purpose. Being accountable in all the things that are happening in life is an example of having high emotional quotient.
Here are some tips on how to nurture Emotional Quotient:
1. Always live with courage. Experimenting and trying different things entail different experiences and open the mind with other possibilities in life.
2. Commit to responsibilities. This drives a person not to give up. It is also a way of earning other people’s trust.
