What does EQ mean?

The term EQ is an abbreviated form of Emotional Quotient. It is interchangeable with the term Emotional Intelligence or EI. At an individual level, EQ is defined as the ability to recognise, understand and manage our own emotions, and the ability to recognise, understand and connect with the emotions of others. Research has shown that developing EQ skills can result in more effective and efficient leaders and staff, and this in turn contributes to more effective business outcomes. At the organisational level, emotional intelligence competencies help you to understand how corporate psychology influences culture, and how to address significant barriers between teams or divisions in a buisness.

EQ can help in improving communications at work which further helps improve performance. We know that effective relationships are an essential part of business life, and with the increasing pace of business today, the ability to manage relationships and constant change are central to successful business relationships and personal career growth.
