Emotional intelligence or EQ comprises intrapersonal and interpersonal skills — in particular high adjustment, sociability, sensitivity, and prudence. Thousands of scientific studies have tested the importance of EQ in various domains of life, providing compelling evidence for the benefits of higher EQ with regards to work, health, and relationships.
For example, EQ is positively correlated with better leadership, job performance, job satisfaction, happiness, and well-being (both physical and emotional).
EQ is negatively correlated with counterproductive work behaviors, psychopathy, and stress proclivity. Emotional intelligence allows for greater interpersonal responsiveness & decreases the likelihood of emotional reactivity.
