Emotional Intelligence Assessment

Workshop Summary:

Emotional Intelligence (EI) is essential to success in every aspect of life — at work, in leadership, and in personal relationships. Research consistently shows that individuals who are self-aware, socially perceptive, and skilled in managing emotions outperform others in career advancement, decision-making, and interpersonal effectiveness.

In this interactive workshop, participants will explore the Emotional Intelligence model and its four key components: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management. They will examine how personal values influence emotional triggers, analyze the challenges of managing emotional responses, and practice strategies to increase emotional awareness and control. Participants will leave equipped with practical tools to strengthen their emotional intelligence, enhance collaboration, and improve overall performance in both professional and personal settings.

Learning Objectives:

• Review the concept of Emotional Intelligence and describe its four primary components.
• Explain the role of the “emotional brain” in influencing thought, behavior, and decision-making.
• Identify personal core values and recognize how they relate to emotional triggers and self-management.
• Explore emotional triggers and analyze how they shape actions and interpersonal behaviors.
• Recognize the unique challenges men and women may face in developing emotional intelligence.
• Demonstrate how emotional intelligence competencies contribute to effective leadership and relationship management.
• Apply emotionally intelligent communication techniques to build and maintain strong relationships.
• Develop strategies to enhance both personal and social dimensions of emotional intelligence.
• Create an Emotional Intelligence Action Plan outlining challenges, needed resources, measurable goals, and implementation strategies.

Observable Behaviors to Watch For:

  • The learner should now be able to identify their own emotional triggers and demonstrate a deeper awareness of personal emotional intelligent levels, areas of strength, and areas in need of improvement.
  • Having attended this workshop, the learner will demonstrate an increased ability to effectively influence, motivate, and manage others.
  • The learner should demonstrate relationship building more competently and effectively.
  • After attending this workshop, the learner should display a greater level of self-awareness, the first domain of emotional intelligence. In doing so, they will demonstrate the ability to recognize and understand personal emotions, have awareness of the source of personal feelings and emotions and their impact on oneself, others and performance, and an accurate sense of how other people see you.
  • Having improved upon Self-Awareness, the learner should demonstrate a greater level of self-control, the second domain of emotional intelligence. Some of these characteristics include the ability to remain flexible and direct behaviors positively in reaction to people and situations through adaptability, taking initiative and being optimistic in the workplace.
  • The ability to accurately perceive, understand and respond to the emotional needs of others is demonstrated through the third domain of emotional intelligence, social awareness. Through developing empathy for others, learners should demonstrate an approved ability to accurately read others’ emotions and nonverbal cues, respect others’ reactions, seeking information rather than assuming, understanding others’ differing perspectives and motives, and communicating an understanding and acceptance of others’ emotions, feelings, and perspectives.
  • Finally, the learner should demonstrate the ability to utilize self-awareness, self-management, and social
    awareness to develop and maintain productive and healthy relationships, inspire and influence others;
    collaborate and cooperate in teams, and effectively manage conflict
