Full Name : Douae Chouiba
Level 4 business management
Nowadays people became curious about their psychological side that’s why
They start searching and asking about the level of their emotional intelligence
How did this word dominate in their mind and how it becames a huge topic to
Disscuss?
So first let’s defined the meaning of this term emotional intelligence is the ability to manage
both your own emotions and understand the emotions of people around you as well as it
help us to communicate well with others own the capacity how to deal with things in life
especially at some specific jobs like having a business ,being a teach or being a manager in
such an international company so all of them need a special energy that comes from
controlling the level of our emotional intelligence. It is very important to take care of those
small details inside of our brain that could either manage or destroy our daily life .
In another hand some companies now are trying to fix this issue with their employees by
testing their emotional intelligence because at the end they are responsible for every small
details in this organization in this point they set some components in order to help them
having this skill :
1. Self-awareness
Self-awareness is about recognising and understanding your emotions – what you’re feeling
and why – as well as appreciating how they affect those around you. It’s the basis of good
intuition and decision-making, helping you to instinctively make the right choices for you in all
aspects of life. Self-awareness is also about knowing your strengths and weaknesses, and
what is important to you – your values or moral compass.
2. Self-regulation
Once you’ve mastered emotional awareness, the next step is managing those emotions –
particularly the negative ones – effectively. Always treat others with respect and try to stay in
control. If you have a tendency to emotional outbursts, practise being calm: step back and
take a deep breath. It’s also important to stay true to your values, and hold yourself
personally accountable for any mistakes.
3. Motivation
The third ‘personal’ element, motivation is about your drive to improve and achieve: setting
high standards for yourself and working consistently towards your goals. Take the initiative:
be ready to act on opportunities as they come along, and practise being assertive.
Motivation is also about optimism and resilience, and finding the positive in a situation, even
– or especially – those that didn’t go well.
4. Empathy
A key interpersonal skill, empathy is the ability to put yourself in someone else’s shoes and
see a situation from their perspective. As well as having an awareness of others’ feelings, it’s
important to acknowledge and respond to them – even if you don’t agree with them.
Respecting diversity and inclusion is a vital aspect of empathy, as is communication: pay
close attention to what you and others say, whether verbally or through body language.
5. Social skills
Often described as a ‘people person’, those who are socially skilled are adept at dealing with
others. They are trustworthy team players and confident communicators: as good at listening
to other people as they are at speaking themselves. They also make great leaders, inspiring
and motivating colleagues, managing change and resolving conflict effectively, and giving
praise where it’s due.
Professional development is one of four parts of the ACA. Our professional development
ladders prepare you to successfully handle different situations that you’ll encounter
throughout your career.
Your physical health. If you're unable to manage your emotions, you are probably not
managing your stress either. This can lead to serious health problems. Uncontrolled stress
raises blood pressure, suppresses the immune system, increases the risk of heart attacks
and strokes, contributes to infertility, and speeds up the aging process. The first step to
improving emotional intelligence is to learn how to manage stress.
Your mental health. Uncontrolled emotions and stress can also impact your mental health,
making you vulnerable to anxiety and depression. If you are unable to understand, get
comfortable with, or manage your emotions, you'll also struggle to form strong relationships.
This in turn can leave you feeling lonely and isolated and further exacerbate any mental
health problems.
For this reasons and more people have to control their actions to test as well their emotional
intelligence and to be careful about it
Finally emotional intelligence for me is a part of our psychological system that push us to
dream about our future life and organise our plans that’s why I always keep in touch my
emotional intelligence trying to understand my self first then the others in order to build
strong relationships.
