The explosion of research on emotional intelligence (EI) in the
past decade has provided increasing evidence that EI can be
measured reliably and can be useful in predicting important
outcomes, such as managerial effectiveness and relationship
quality. Naturally, people are now asking, "So, how does one
improve EI?". Applying Emotional Intelligence collects the most
important programs focused on that idea, and enquires of their
originators, "What do you do?", "Why do you do it?", and, "What is
the evidence for your approach?". The emphasis of the book is
applied, in that it provides and contrasts concrete examples of
what we do in our interventions in a wide variety of situations.
The chapters present descriptions of programs, including specific
activities and exercises that influence emotional knowledge and
social effectiveness more generally. While practical in its focus,
this book also discusses the theoretical bases for these
approaches. These are new programs with outcomes that are now
beginning to be studied. The book presents the most important and
recent research findings that examine the efficacy of these
programs. Applying Emotional Intelligence is a "must-read" for
anyone interested in EI and its application. This book will be of
interest to researchers conducting EI intervention research, as
well as a wide variety of practitioners, including those interested
in developing EI in organizations, health areas, clinical
populations, and school-age settings. Finally, the book is designed
to be relevant to the reader's own life, encouraging the reader to
consider how the programs and the exercises might impact his or her
personality and outlook, as well as contribute to the development
of those who have themselves participated in the programs.
