Impact of Emotional Intelligence on Health and Wellness
In the reading, Goleman makes the case for “emotional intelligence” being the strongest indicator of human success, particularly the ability to love and be loved by friends, partners, and family members. He outlines critical skills that are necessary to develop strong emotional intelligence, including self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, mood management, and social skills, including empathy. Goleman goes on to explain the benefits of having emotional intelligence and describes the potentially disastrous and tragic consequences of failure to apply emotional intelligence.
