Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2020 in the subject Health - Stress management, , course: Research Paper, language: English, abstract: The desideratum of the discourse is aimed to determine stress management and emotional intelligence at the workplace, especially with a global pandemic at hand. The global pandemic Coronavirus has arguably ushered in stress and global crisis in the economy and health sector. The crisis results from the collision of vulnerabilities and specific trigger events. The crisis triggers are unpredictable and predicting the timing of a crisis is a fool ‘s errand. Anyone can become splenetic that is easy. However, to be ferocious with the right staff, to the right extent, at the correct time, for the correct purpose, and correctly, this is not burdensome. Emotional intelligence has been demonstrated to be one of the essential determinants for effective leadership. First-line supervisors who appreciate and employ their emotional intelligence in the workplace are more procumbent, and recumbent to retain their staff, enjoy greater collaboration, commitment, and to experience increases in co-worker performance. Academic intelligence has infinitesimal to do with emotional life. The sagacity among us can founder on the shallow of unbridled passions and boisterous impulses; people with high IQ can be remarkedly poor pilots of their private lives. To know that employees are valedictorian is to know they are vastly good at achievement as evaluated by grades. It does not unravel about how they boomerang to the vicissitudes of life. Emotionally intelligent women employee, by juxtaposition, be inclined to be assertive and express their sentiments directly, and to feel unequivocal about themselves; life holds nuts and bolts for them. Like the men, they are cordial, gregarious, and express their ethos appropriately; they roll with punches well to stress. We discovered that 68% are extremely and highly worried of the devastating effects of the pandemic of mass destruction. A stress prevention strategy coupled with coping strategies such as the employment of Wellness programs, breathing, peer support, counselling, religion, exercising, encouraging holiday to the beach and meditation to be employed by Secretaries.

Download or read book Emotional Intelligence at Work written by Chi-Sum Wong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emotional intelligence is a very popular concept since it was made known to the general public in 1995. However, it was under severe criticisms among scientific researchers and a lot of them did not believe that it should be accepted by scientists as true knowledge. The author of this book, who is one of the pioneers in this topic, spent sixteen years to study this concept. Together with other researchers, they gradually changed the conclusion of early researchers. Using rigorously scientific standards, this research team demonstrated that emotional intelligence is an intelligence dimension that has significant impact on various life outcomes such as life satisfaction and job performance. They developed testable theoretical framework for emotional intelligence in the workplace, and attempted to show that the trainability of emotional intelligence is larger than traditional intelligence concept. The book looks at, not only the scientific reports, but all the stories behind some of the rigorous scientific studies in the author's 18-year journey. Their choice of research designs and how the designs are suitable to provide scientific evidence to demonstrate the validity of emotional intelligence are also described. Through this book, the process of scientific enquiry and important issues concerning the emotional intelligence concept are revealed in details by vivid stories and rigorous scientific reports.

Download or read book An Exploration of the Effects of Emotional Intelligence on Work life Balance Above and Beyond Personality Components in Working Graduate and Undergraduate Students written by Farnaz Namin-Hedayati and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explored the relationship between emotional intelligence and work-life balance while holding the effect of personality constant. The relationships among work-life balance (as indicated by work-family and family-work conflict) Personality and emotional intelligence were measured in 100 working undergraduate and graduate students. While certain dimensions of emotional intelligence were predicted to correlate with personality, emotional intelligence was hypothesized to predict work-family and family-work conflict over and above the influence of personality traits. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to analyze whether emotional intelligence contributed incrementally in predicting work-family and family-work conflict. Results indicated that total emotional intelligence explained significant levels of the variance of both work-family conflict and family-work conflict, even in the presence of personality. However, the individual emotional intelligence dimensions, notably EI2 (managing own emotions) explained significant variances of family-work conflict only. From a practical perspective, the identification of emotional intelligence as relative to work related conflict management may have significant potential as a stress management technique.
