What is EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE?

Goleman (2001) proposed 4 key domains of emotional intelligence that help individuals thrive:

  • Self-awareness
     
  • Self-management
     
  • Social awareness
     
  • Relationship management

Why do we need EQ?

EQ has been shown positively correlated with increased job performance, better health and wellbeing (Keefer, Parker, & Saklofske, 2018).

Individuals - including leaders - with high EQ present the ability to self-regulate, self-motivate, improve interpersonal relationships, and they are often considered more affectionate by their peers (Nguyen et al., 2020)

Where can I see the impact of EQ in the medical & veterinary

Teams and leaders with HIGH EQ master the following areas of their professional life:

  • building trust & psychological safety
     
  • communicating clearly & efficiently
     
  • exchanging feedback
     
  • increasing patient safety
     
  • working efficiently under the pressure
     
  • building strong & healthy intra-team relationships
     
  • protecting mental health of team members
     
  • nurturing autonomy, engagement, goal setting, growth mindset and purposeful work
     
  • creating the atmosphere of camaraderie & positive emotions
