"Understanding Emotional Intelligence in Six Seconds."

Inside Change: Transforming Your Organization with Emotional Intelligence
by Joshua Freedman, Massimiliano Ghini, MBA

Many times the books on leadership focused on systems, management, etc., not taking into account the complex (and powerful!) system of our emotions. Josh Freedman integrate much of the new neuroscience with a comprehensive look and analysis of how people can make successful change by honoring the people involved, integrating emotional intelligence skills, in conjunction with keen business sense.

There is so much to offer in this book, it is like reading an"Operational Manual" in each chapter. This is a must read for those who are looking for ways to change, starting from the inside!

Joshua Freedman, author of "Inside Change"

     

The above video is the results of a team of educators ,versed in an experiential approach to learning that's both joyful and meaningful, wanted to be sure their organization maintained a commitment to distilling big ideas into bite-sized pieces.

The research says it takes around six seconds for those molecules of emotion to get absorbed back into your body after you've had a reaction. For someone to recognize the feeling of compassion -- and it was around six seconds.

Thus, Joshua Freedman's organization was named "Six Seconds"

It takes six seconds to manage anger.
It takes six seconds to create compassion.
It takes six seconds to change the world.

There is science behind the name and the flood that is triggered, delivered, and absorbed in about six seconds of even emotion. Understanding Emotional Intelligence in Six Seconds.

Emotional Intelligence Tests Make People Better and More Productive Individuals   
Louis Zhang

Emotional intelligence tests are very effective tools that can help people demonstrate how aware they are of their own weaknesses and character traits.


Although most people claim to be knowledgeable about all aspects of their lives, they are often clueless as to their emotional intelligence. Additionally, it is easy to point out the character flaws and weaknesses in other people but people generally fail to look deep inside themselves to find the flaws within. It is so important for people to have and to be aware of their emotional intelligence but it is very rare to find someone who actually is.

These tests give guidance as to what specifically needs improvement or which traits need to be acquired to make the person improve and become better. When people are given a clear direction about what they should be working on, it makes self-improvement much less of a daunting task. Being aware of one's emotional intelligence helps people lead more productive and more fulfilling lives and it can help them have better and stronger relationships.

Emotional intelligence exercises can help people deal with challenges in life and with daily interactions and relationships, making life better and more fulfilling. Emotional intelligence means that people will be able to detect the emotions and feelings of himself and of other people.


Having this skill is very effective in allowing people to know how to deal with many situations in life, such as during conflict. Understanding the other person's side and viewpoint can help avoid conflict or can help end a disagreement with both parties feeling assuaged and cared about.


Even though emotional intelligence can be learned about by reading, special emotional intelligence exercises can help people work on acquiring this asset in a more tangible and real way.


Respecting others is an effective emotional intelligence exercise because it allows on to put himself in another person's position. It also helps reduce conflict and makes a person more understanding.


Being aware of the names of feelings can help one identify his emotions so that he can channel them more effectively. Another exercise is learning how to take the energy that certain emotions bring. For example, one who feels anger should use emotional intelligence exercises to help him deal with the energy that the anger brings. Once the energy is directed elsewhere, for example into a productive activity, he has used his emotions in as industrious and constructive way instead of allowing it to have destructive effects.


An essential aspect of emotional intelligence tests is that it allows people to become much more self-aware and they can therefore become more responsible for their own actions. This means that instead of blaming others for his mistakes and for things that go wrong in life, a person with emotional intelligence will look internally and will find his own flaws and will work on them.
