Emotional Quotient Inventory EQ-i 2.0

Overview:

Emotional Intelligence is not a new field of study, but it really took off in 1995 after Daniel Goldman wrote the book: “Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More than IQ”. Since that time, psychometric tools such as the EQ-i 2.0 were developed and refined over time to assess and measure an individual’s “emotional intelligence”. The most widely used assessment tool in the world to test Emotional Intelligence is the Emotional Quotient Inventory 2.0 or EQi 2.0® tool.  

Emotional Intelligence has a direct correlation to career success, and is defined as “the set of emotional and social skills that influence how we perceive and express ourselves, develop and maintain social relationships, cope with challenges, and use emotional information in a meaningful way.” Gaining an understanding of these skills, including strengths and weaknesses can help an individual leverage additional success in relationships, conflict resolution, and potentially career success.”
