EQ Is A Trainable Superpower. Here’s How-PT1

from Engage Relate Perform Hosted by Murtaza Versi

Do you believe it is possible to increase your own emotional intelligence? Is it possible to increase the EQ of others? According to Dr. Daniel Goleman, a person’s emotional intelligence is a malleable, trainable skill – unlike your IQ. He argues that a person could even train their emotional intelligence well beyond its natural levels. So if EQ is a trainable skill, how can we work that skill like a muscle to build it up to that capacity? In today’s episode, I explain what emotional intelligence is and discuss some of the key competencies of emotional intelligence. I explain how increasing your EQ can help you form better relationships. I explain what cognitive empathy is and share strategies you can use to improve it. I also discuss the benefits and drawbacks of using cognitive empathy skills when negotiating with others. “Having empathy increases the likelihood of helping others and showing compassion.” - Murtaza Versi This week on Engage Relate Perform: ● Understanding what emotional intelligence is ● The connection between EQ and empathy ● How increasing your EQ can help you build better relationships ● Understanding cognitive empathy ● How to improve your cognitive empathy ● The benefits and drawbacks of using cognitive empathy skills when negotiating with others Engage, Relate, Perform!
