When we’re growing through life we learn the importance of intelligence and know-how. We value experience because with it we believe it increases a person's knowledge base. We also are groomed to believe that emotion and intelligence are mutually exclusive, meaning they cannot exist together at the same time.

However, what has become increasingly popular in recent years is the concept of Emotional Intelligence. Leading researchers on the topic Peter Salovey and John Mayer define emotional intelligence as the ability to recognize and understand emotions in oneself and others. It involves using this emotional understanding to make decisions, solve problems and communicate effectively. Today we’re going to talk about the value of emotional intelligence and how it can make you a better employee and leader.
