"What matters for success, character, happiness and lifelong achievements is a definite set of emotional skills – your EQ — not just purely cognitive abilities that are measured by conventional IQ tests.” — Daniel Goleman.

While leadership qualities are traditionally associated with intelligence, toughness, determination and vision are required for success, they are insufficient. Truly influential leaders are distinguished by a high degree of Emotional Intelligence, including self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy and social skill.

Emotional intelligence, also called EQ, is the ability to understand and control our emotions. Emotionally intelligent people know how to recognize their negative emotions and reduce the bad impacts on their lives. Emotionally intelligent people stay calm, avoid conflicts, think positively, which helps them adapt to the environment to achieve their goals.

What significance does Emotional Intelligence have for the children of today who will be the leaders of tomorrow?

Can greater emotional intelligence help in greater happiness and perhaps happier individuals?

As parents, we want our children to have loving, long-lasting, and meaningful relationships with us. Understanding the role that emotions play in connecting each other can help us do just that. We form connections with others by sharing our emotions. Therefore, communication that involves an awareness of our own emotions, and ability to respectfully share our emotions, and an empathetic understanding of our children's emotions lay the foundation of a lifelong relationship with our children
