It doesn’t matter whether you are a tiger or a deer: when the

Emotional Intelligence (EI) & EQEmotional Intelligence (EI) & EQ
Emotional Intelligence, also called EI and often measured as an
Emotional Intelligence Quotient (EQ), describes an ability,
capacity, or skill to perceive, assess, and manage the emotions
of one's self, of others, and of groups
“Anyone can become angry – that is easy. But
to be angry with the right person, to the right
degree, at the right time, for the right purpose,
and in the right way – that is not easy.”
Aristotle in ‘Nicomachean Ethics’

Emotional Intelligence by BarOnEmotional Intelligence by BarOn
“The measurement of emotional
intelligence in the workplace is the first
step towards improving it. The truly
intelligent leader is one who is not only
“cogtelligent” (cognitively intelligent) but
also “emtelligent” (emotionally
intelligent).”
Reuven Bar-On who coined the term "EQ" in 1985.

"A leader's intelligence has to have a strong emotional
component. He has to have high self-awareness,
maturity and self-control. He must be able to withstand
the heat, handle setbacks and when those lucky
moments arise, enjoy success with equal parts of joy and
humility. Emotional intelligence is more rare than book
smarts, but it is actually more important in the making of
a leader."
Jack Welch, former Chairman & CEO of GE Inc.

Level 5 Leaders:
Many people have the potential to be Level 5
Ambitious for the organization – not for themselves
Set up their successors for even greater success
Display modesty, are self-effacing and understated
Are driven by a need to produce results
Credit success to others but take responsibility for failure
Level 5 leaders score well on BarOn EQ-i

New Discoveries in NeurophysiologyNew Discoveries in Neurophysiology
Amygdala
Thalamus
Sensory signals from hearing and sight travel from the thalamus
then on to both the neocortex (the “thinking” brain) and amygdala
(center of emotional intelligence) simultaneously. The amygdala is
a faster processor.
The amygdala’s processing of information includes physiological
responses (increased heartbeat, glandular secretions, etc.)

‘Amygdala Hijack’‘Amygdala Hijack’
This is what happens when people “lose it”
They lose control and end up in a place they didn’t want to be
— their emotions are not used effectively
They erupt, shut down, do something extra‐ordinarily brave,
or otherwise act irrationally
On reflection they find it hard to explain why they acted as
they did

Answer for Scenario 1
The Credit Stealing Colleague:
The most emotionally intelligent answer is D. By demonstrating an awareness of
work‐place dynamics, and an ability to control your emotional responses, publicly
recognizing your own accomplishments in a non‐threatening manner, will disarm
your colleague as well as puts you in a better light with your manager and peers.
Public confrontations can be ineffective, are likely to cause your colleague to
become defensive.
A. 0 Points – Immediately and publicly confront the colleague over the
ownership of your work.
B. 5 Points – After the meeting, take the colleague aside and tell her that you
would appreciate in the future that she credits you when speaking about your
work.
C. 0 Points – Nothing, it's not a good idea to embarrass colleagues in public.
D. 10 Points – After the colleague speaks, publicly thank her for referencing your
work and give the group more specific detail about what you were trying to
accomplish.

Individual Exercise: Self ReflectionIndividual Exercise: Self Reflection
• What is one point or story you heard during the Workshop that
motivates you to develop further your E.I. in the workplace? Why?
• Describe an incident where you intentionally demonstrated an E.I.
domain or competence to create an environment for optimal
performance. What exactly did you do? How did it turn out?
• Which of the six leadership styles do you tend to use most naturally?
Is there one that you overuse? Why? Is there one that you under
use? Why?
• Is there a style that seems more “acceptable” in your organization? If
so, what is it? How could you become more effective at that style?

In Conclusion: Key to SuccessIn Conclusion: Key to Success
Leaders who have mastered a repertoire of four or
more styles have the best climate and business
performance.
The most effective leaders move flexibly among
the styles as needed
Research indicates deficit and overplayed EI
competencies can contribute to leadership
derailment
Finally, EI competencies can be developed over
time and with the right leadership development
support including executive coaching, those with
leadership potential can be developed into
outstanding leaders
