The Emotional Intelligence makes us happier and healthier
Emotional Intelligence is the capacity to recognize and to efficiently manage our own emotions, as well as the capacity to understand and to efficiently interact with those around us.
People with high EQ (Emotional Intelligence Quotient) are happier, healthier and more successful when talking about business, current job and private life.
While Cognitive Intelligence and technical skills are required on your way to the top, Emotional Intelligence is the one which makes the difference between successful and average leaders, teams and organizations.

Emotional Intelligence Development
According to many researches, Emotional Intelligence can be improved through a systematic and consistent approach, the same way technical skills are developed. It takes a longer time, though: the emotional learning process is not a straight one, and the lack of practice may cause come-backs.
The key factors which improve the employees’ emotional abilities are the support and constant motivation from the organization. The improvement process implies a change in conceptions, attitudes and habits. On the long run, a strategic programme which consists in evaluation > learning > practice > feedback allows the employees to improve their emotional abilities and provides top performers to grow inside the organization.
