EI in the Workplace
 
 
Origins of the Concept
 
 
Darwin’s early work on the importance of
emotional expression for survival (1870s)
 
E.L. Thorndike (1920) used the term social
intelligence to describe the skill of
understanding and managing other people
 
**
 
Origins of the Concept
 
 
David Wechsler (1940) described the
influence of non-intellectual factors on
intelligent behavior
 
Argued that models of intelligence won’t be
complete until they adequately describe these
factors
 
**
 
Origins of the Concept
 
 
Howard Gardner (1983) introduced the
ideal of multiple intelligences
Interpersonal intelligence
: the capacity to
understand the intentions, motivations, and
desires of other people
Intrapersonal intelligence
: the capacity to
understand oneself, to appreciate one’s feelings,
fears, and motivations
 
**
 
Origins of the Concept
 
 
The term “Emotional Intelligence” finally
became widely popular upon the publication
of Daniel Goleman’s best seller
 
Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter
More Than IQ
 
 
 
**
 
Emotional Intelligence Models
 
Much confusion regarding exact meaning of
this construct
 
Defined slightly differently by each model
 
3 main models of EI:
Ability EI Models
Trait EI Model
Mixed Models of EI
 
Ability Based EI
 
 
Developed by Peter Salovey and John D.
Mayer
 
Define EI: “the ability to perceive emotion,
integrate emotion to facilitate thought,
understand emotions, and to regulate
emotions to promote personal growth”
 
**
 
Ability Based EI: Assumptions
 
 
Emotional intelligence defined within the
confines of the standard criteria for a new
intelligence
 
Emotions are useful sources of info that
help one to make sense of/navigate their
social environments
 
 
 
**
 
Ability Based EI: Assumptions
 
Individuals vary:
 In their ability to process information of an
emotional nature
In their ability to relate emotional processing to a
wider cognition
 
These abilities manifest in certain adaptive
behaviors
 
 
 
 
**
 
Ability Based EI: Assumptions
 
 
Emotional Intelligence Abilities:
 
Perceiving Emotions - ability to decipher emotions
in faces, pictures, voices, and cultural artifacts
 
Understanding Emotions - ability to comprehend
emotion language and to appreciate complicated
relationships among emotions
 
 
 
 
**
 
Ability Based EI: Assumptions
 
Emotional Intelligence Abilities:
 
Using Emotions - ability to harness emotions to
facilitate various cognitive activities, such as
thinking and problem solving
 
Managing Emotions - ability to regulate
emotions in both ourselves and in others
 
 
**
 
Ability Based EI: Measurement
 
 
MSCEIT: Mayer-Salovey-Caruso
Emotional Intelligence Test
Based on a series of emotion-based problem-
solving items
Tests individual’s abilities on each of the four
branches of emotional intelligence
Scores generated for each of the four branches
as well as a total score
 
 
**
 
Ability Based EI: Measurement
 
MSCEIT: Scoring
Individual’s responses compared to those
provided by worldwide sample of respondents
With higher scores indicating higher overlap between
individual and comparison group
Expert-scored
Where individual’s score is compared to a group of 21
emotion researchers
Unlike IQ test, items on MSCEIT do not
have objectively correct responses
Difficult to regard as a genuine intelligence
 
Ability Based EI:
Measurement Issues
 
MSCEIT may only measure knowledge, not
ability: That is, even though someone may know
how to behave in an emotional situation, he/she
may not be able to carry out behavior (Brody,
2004)
 
MSCEIT may only measure conformity
(Roberts et al., 2001)
 
Self-report measures are susceptible to social
desirability bias
 
Trait EI Model
 
Proposed by Petrides et. al. (2000)
Major critics of ability based model and
MSCEIT
 
Defined Trait EI: “a constellation of
emotion-related self-perceptions located at
the lower levels of personality”
Based on individual’s self-perceptions of their
emotional abilities
 
 
**
 
Trait EI: Measurement
 
TEIQue: Trait Emotional Intelligence
Questionnaire
Self-report inventory
15 subscales organized under 4 factors:
Well-being
Self-control
Emotionality
Sociability
Along with scores for the subscales and main
factors, a global trait EI score is also given
 
**
 
Trait EI: TEIQue
Measurement
 
Trait EI: Findings
 
TEIQue:
Scores have been found to be globally normally
distributed and reliable
Scores were not related to nonverbal reasoning
Possible support for the personality trait view
Related to Big 5:
Positively related – Extraversion, Agreeableness,
Openness, Conscientiousness
Inversely related – Neuroticism
 
**
 
Mixed Models of EI:
Emotional Competencies
 
Developed by Daniel Goleman
Define EI: “a wide array of competencies
and skills that drive leadership performance”
People are born with general emotional
intelligence that determines their potential for
learning emotional competencies
These competencies are learned capabilities
that must be worked on to achieve outstanding
performance
**
 
Mixed Models of EI:
Emotional Competencies
 
Personal Competence
 
Mixed Models of EI:
Emotional Competencies
 
Social Competence
 
Emotional Competencies:
Measurement
 
 
Two measurement tools for Goleman’s
model
ECI: Emotional Competency Inventory, 1999
Revised; ESCI: Emotional and Social
Competency Inventory, 2007
Emotional Intelligence Appraisal, 2001
Can be self-report
Or 360-degree assessment
 
 
**
 
Emotional Competencies:
Measurement
 
ECI – Emotional Competence Inventory
Approximately 40% of items came from an older
instrument, the Self-Assessment Questionnaire
Developed by Boyatzis, 1994
 
These earlier items have been validated against
performance in hundreds of competency studies of
managers, executives, and leaders in North America,
Italy, and Brazil
 
There is no research that supports the validity of
ECI
 
Mixed Models of EI: Bar-On
Model of  Emotional-Social
Intelligence
 
Developed by Reuven Bar-On
1
st
 to use the term: Emotion Quotient
 
Define EI: “being concerned with effectively
understanding oneself and others, relating
well to people, and adapting to and coping
with the immediate surroundings to be more
successful in dealing with environmental
demands”
 
**
 
Bar-On EI Model:
Assumptions
 
Emotional intelligence develops over time
Can be improved through training or therapy
 
Emotional intelligence and cognitive intelligence
contribute equally to a person’s general
intelligence, which then indicates one’s potential
to succeed in life
Individuals with higher than average EQ’s are in
general more successful in meeting environmental
demands and pressures
Deficiency in EQ can mean a lack of success and
emotional problems
**
 
Bar-On EI Model: Factors
 
Bar-On Model: Factors
 
Bar-On Model: Measurement
 
EQ-I: Bar-On Emotion Quotient
Inventory
133 questions used to obtain a Total EQ
Also gives 5 composite scale scores
corresponding to the 5 main components of the
model
Not meant to measure  personality traits or
cognitive capacity; rather the mental ability to be
successful in dealing with environmental demands
and pressures
 
Bar-On Model:
Measurement Issues
 
EQ-I
Self-report, highly susceptible to faking
Originally developed in a clinical setting, not the
work environment
Much is known about its reliability and
convergent and discriminate validity
Little is known about its predictive ability in the
work environment
However, EQ-I was predictive of success for U.S.
Air Force recruiters; by using the test, the Air Force
saved 3 million dollars annually
 
Is EI a Form of Intelligence?
 
“Goleman exemplifies more clearly than most the
fundamental absurdity of the tendency to class
almost any type of behavior as an ‘intelligence’…If
these five ‘abilities’ define ‘emotional intelligence’,
we would expect some evidence that they are highly
correlated; Goleman admits that they might be
quite uncorrelated, and in any case if we cannot
measure them, how do we know they are related?
So the whole theory is built on quicksand: there is
no sound scientific basis.”
Eysenck, 2000
 
Is EI a Form of Intelligence?
 
 
Locke (2005) suggested that emotional
intelligence is not a new or distinct form of
intelligence; rather, it is simply the intelligence
construct applied to the domain of emotions.
Hence, it is more like a skill.
 
Does EI Have Predictive Value?
 
Davies, Stankov, & Roberts (1998) concluded
that there was nothing empirically new in the
idea of emotional intelligence
Measures utilized at that time were new, and little was
known about their psychometric properties (Cherniss,
2000)
 
Landy (2005) stated that the few incremental
validity studies conducted on EI have shown that it
adds nothing of real value to prediction of academic
and work success
 
EI Measurement Issues
 
 
 
Business vs. Academics – the former often
make grandiose predictions predicated upon
emotional intelligence while the latter warns
against unscientific abuses
 
EI Measurement Issues
 
 
For example: Goleman has asserted “the most effective
leaders are alike in one crucial way: they all have a high
degree of what has come to be known as emotional
intelligence…EI is the sine qua non of leadership”
 
Mayer rebuts, “the popular literature’s implication-that
highly emotionally intelligent people possess an
unqualified advantage in life-appears overly enthusiastic
at present and unsubstantiated by reasonable scientific
standards”
 
EI and Gender Differences
 
 
Women are higher than men:
Empathy
Social Responsibility
 
Men are higher than women:
Stress Tolerance
Self Confidence
 
EI in the Workplace
 
 
Critics believe that improving literacy and
analytical skills is the best way to improve job
performance
 
Cognitive skills will only get you in the door
Steve Stein
 
EI in the Workplace
 
Highly Emotional Intelligent Employees:
Lower absenteeism
Better psychological health
Higher commitment
Clearer role boundaries
Higher job satisfaction
Better coping skills
Higher levels of responsibility and performance
 
EI in the Workplace
 
 
Importance of EI in bosses and leaders
CEO Information Vacuum
 
Tasler & Su
Measured EI of employees from janitors to
CEOs
 
EI in the Workplace
 
 
Different jobs call for different EIQ
 
Sales associate
Tennis pro
 
Improving Company EI
 
 
Incorporate EI into hiring process
Develop interview questions to assess:
Self- awareness
Interpersonal skills
Stress management
Adaptability
Optimism
Level of happiness
 
Improving Company EI
 
Assess EI of current and possible future
leaders
EQ-I
MSCEIT
ECI
 
Amend performance appraisals to include
how the job gets done
 
Improving Company EI
 
 
Teaching EI

Emotional Intelligence (EI) revolves around perceiving, understanding, and managing emotions effectively. Originating from Darwin to modern scholars like Daniel Goleman, EI has evolved through various models such as Ability-Based EI, Trait EI, and Mixed Models. The concept gained popularity with Goleman's book, emphasizing its significance beyond IQ. Different scholars have contributed to shaping the understanding of EI as a crucial aspect of human behavior and interaction.
