Some of the key figures in developing the concept of emotional intelligence are Peter Salovey, psychologist, and John D. Mayer, professor of psychology. In 1990, they published a seminal paper entitled «Emotional Intelligence» in the journal Imagination, Cognition, and Personality.
Daniel Goleman later popularized the concept in his 1995 book titled Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ. Goleman’s book attracted widespread attention to the idea of emotional intelligence and its importance to various aspects of life, including personal and professional success.
Thus, while Salovey and Mayer played an important role in the early development of the concept, Daniel Goleman played a significant role in bringing emotional intelligence to the attention of a wide audience.
It should not be forgotten that the separation of the concepts of emotional, logical, or any other type of intelligence is very arbitrary, and natural intelligence inscrutably accommodates all of these abilities. Researchers resort to such abstractions (IQ, EQ, etc.) in the course of their work to solve their problems. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon to try to capitalize on such concepts by translating them into marketing and info-products.
Strategies to boost EQ
Emotional intelligence involves knowing, understanding, and managing one’s own emotions, as well as recognizing and empathizing with the emotions of others. The four domains of EQ are outlined as follows (Kathleen Davis, «Science-based strategies to help boost emotional intelligence at work and in life»):
1. Recognizing and understanding one’s own emotions, involving practices like asking for feedback and identifying emotional cues.
2. Regulating emotions to be agile and adaptable, including activities such as taking a walk, deep breathing, or engaging in therapeutic processes.
3. Empathizing with others and considering their perspectives, contributing to creating a sense of belonging in the workplace.
