480: How to Develop Your Emotional Intelligence with Marc Brackett

480: How to Develop Your Emotional Intelligence with Marc Brackett

IQ Tests remain the best method (albeit flawed) to assess intelligence. More difficult to measure, but perhaps more interesting, is Emotional Intelligence (EQ). How does someone rank in terms of self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and relationship management. In a digitally driven, AI-enabled future, perhaps people with the highest emotional skills could be those who find the greatest success.

A big part of personal development is learning to understand and accept who you are, unchanging, but also to identify those parts of you that are malleable and doing your best to self actualize. Our guest on this week's show has dedicated his life and work to emotional intelligence research and training.

Listen & Learn:

  • How clinical EQ assessments work
  • How emotional intelligence is crucial for workplace, family and social happiness
  • Why it's important to train (and learn) EQ skills
  • The challenges of environments that reward IQ and squelch EQ
