Recent scientific research suggests that one's Emotional Quotient (EQ), more than Intelligence Quotient (IQ) alone, provides the basis for a more successful and satisfying personal life and career. This course will focus on the factors essential to taking control of one's life, thinking clearly, and relating to others with trust and integrity. Emotional intelligence will be related to effective leadership skills in the context of organizational climate and culture. Students will complete a personal emotional intelligence assessment profile using the EQ Map Questionnaire that is included in the course text by Robert Cooper. Students will then create a personal development plan based on the results of the EQ map profile and will analyze their organization for ways to enhance the overall EQ.
