What Emotional Intelligence Can Do For Your Organization in 2004
Part 2
by Susan Dunn

Resilience

One of the biggest detractors from concentration and productivity is stress. Building resilience is the best way to tolerate stress according to a recent Wall Street Journal article. Resilience, an EQ competency, means being able to bounce back after setbacks, disappointments, rejections and losses while retaining a hopeful and enthusiastic outlook.

According to Al Siebert, Ph.D., who has done research on resilience for many years, one of the attributes of a resilient person is having many different characteristics, for instance being able to be rigid or flexible, analytical or creative, as required by the particular situation. This requires also being able to access all parts of your brain -emotions and thinking, left and right brain. This is EQ in action.

Flexibility

Being flexible means being able to generate alternate solutions when you "hit the wall." Whether it's a person you can't get around, or an idea you know will work but may not initially be popular, or a change in office systems, or a turf war that needs ending, having many alternate ways of approaching the challenge maximizes your chances of success.

Positive Attitude

Optimism is the facilitator of all the EQ competencies and fuels productivity and high performance. A high score in optimism is the single best predictor for successful sales peoples (http://www.eiconsortium.org), and is crucial to performance situations such as giving presentations and negotiating.

A clear example of this is an athlete. Imagine if a boxer went into the ring thinking "I'm not sure I can do this," or "He's better than I am, what's the use?" Coaches spend as much time working on an athlete's attitude as their physical skills.

How To Introduce Eq

A model program begins with assessing each individual's EQ. Then start everyone on The EQ Foundation Course© which explains the competencies and raises EQ as it is taken. It is interactive and on the Internet, self-paced, active learning, 12 modules, and comes with a workbook. Then subscribe everyone to an eZine that gives weekly tips and builds team participation.

At the same time, each individual receives coaching weekly to work on the competencies that need improving which may be in person or by telephone. Additional group work by meeting or teleconference builds team EQ skills and keeps everyone reading off the same page. The recommended minimum time investment for this type of learning is 3 months. A post-program assessment measures results.

Alternatively, managers and executives can take a program such as EQ Alive! (http://www.eqcoach.net) to learn how to coach others in EQ.

Participants in a well-designed and initiated EQ program can increase their ability to work together, to lead more effectively, to manage themselves and motivate others better, to be more flexible and creative in finding solutions, to focus better and act with intent, and to be more resilient, and therefore, ultimately, be more productive.
