From the Paper
"Over the past thirty years, educational theorists have created a paradigm to categorize emotional intelligence into three categories - self-knowledge or emotional literacy, consequential relationships or self-choice, and noble goal setting or giving of self. These components combine to form a hierarchal paradigm. While there are various sub-components under each heading. These three categories comprise the definition of emotional intelligence. (Fish, 2004)."

Abstract
This paper explains, based on D. Goleman's book "Emotional Intelligence: Why it can Matter More than IQ", that emotional intelligence includes the ability to empathize and to hope, which are qualities more valuable than the high IQ that schools still insist is the measure of a child's ability. The author points out that Goleman states that emotional intelligence allows a person to motivate him or herself, persist when frustrated, control impulses, delay gratification, regulate his or her own moods and be able to think even when distressed. The paper relates that the author points out that, because their brains are not fully formed yet, it is possible to teach children to become aware of their emotions and how to control them appropriately; therefore, the schools have a genuine opportunity to make children emotionally literate.
From the Paper
"Violent criminals often lack empathy and have no sympathy or feeling for their victim's suffering. Violence in schools, sometimes ending in the death of students, is a direct result of emotional illiteracy. We need to pay more attention to this problem rather than making reading and writing the end-all and be-all of education. Goleman argues that childhood has been poisoned by hectic, instable, and inconsistent family life as well as all the negative influences surrounding children, and emotional malaise in children is the price that is being paid."

From the Paper
"Motivation helps the individuals to define new and improved methods of completing a certain task or performing a job. It also creates loyalty among the individuals, towards their cause. In addition to this, the element of empathy further contributes towards the development of emotional intelligence in an individual. It allows the individual to consider the feelings of the individuals who are expected to be affected by his or her decisions. Emotional Intelligence helps the individuals to realize the fact that their decisions are going to affect others in a positive or a negative manner and therefore they should consider the consequences of their decisions. Finally, social skills allow the individuals to come close to their peers and subordinates and understand their emotional needs."

Abstract
This paper presents reviews of literature discussing emotional intelligence. The paper discusses the relationship between transformational leadership and emotional intelligence, as well as emotional intelligence in gifted adolescent students. It then goes on to analyze the methods used in the studies and to describe the studies' limitations.
Table of Contents:
Introduction
Survey Method
Experiment
Conclusion
From the Paper
" In all three studies, the impact of emotional intelligence on an individual's success rate was tested. Whether it was a survey, experiment or assessment used all three tested the same basic elements using different populations and different approaches. Overall it appears that the research supports the belief that emotional intelligence is a factor to consider when studying human nature and drive, however, there may be elements of certain populations (IE gifted) where other factors override therefore de-emphasis the significance of emotional intelligence with regard to success. These three studies are important to the future examination of the topic because they indicate that there may well be variations in the type of person who benefits from having a high emotional intelligence. This will be important to understand for the purpose of career training and educational paths in the future."

Abstract
This research study examines how emotional intelligence may impact sales outcomes, and to what extent the research conducted in the past has effectively explored the direct relationship between sales outcomes and emotional intelligence. The paper explains that the literature review focused on previous methodologies, hypothesis, concepts and analytical procedures to help establish whether data correlating emotional intelligence scores to sales outcomes was more qualitative or quantitative in nature. The author points out that, from the review of the literature, it is clear that much of the research focused broadly on the ways emotional intelligence may impact outcome without too much specificity given to the topic of sales outcomes. The paper concludes that future research needs to focus on exploring the exact impact emotional intelligence has on sales outcomes, exploring how negative emotional intelligence affects the organization and examining what tools, aside from applied learning or goal orientation, can be used to transform negative emotional intelligence into positive intelligence.

"Ashkanasy (2002) conducted a study of emotional intelligence and perception of emotion in organizations in an attempt to improve understanding of "organizational behavior through investigation of the cognitive and affective processes" underlying attitudes among employees and behavior. The author hypothesized that leaders within an organization are characterized by certain traits or outcomes that may predispose them to their roles within the organization, concluding that attribution theory is most likely the best causal explanation for why people act the way they do, and how this may impact organizational efficacy, as in the case of sales.

From the Paper
"For those who are already working in organizations, Lynn (2004) suggests that companies build training programs that are geared towards specific emotional intelligence competencies. Techniques like role-playing, simulations and other interactive methods can help employees enhance their interpersonal skills, such as managing emotion and the effective ways of motivation and establishing rapport. While such training will represent initial investment of resources, many psychologists agree that these programs will pay off in terms of higher productivity, higher levels of employee satisfaction and higher retention."

From the Paper
"Leadership requires some degree of intellect and IQ but these are merely "threshold capabilities" that help achieve a high-level position (Goleman, 1998a). Goleman's (199b) extensive research on emotional intelligence has proven that 85 to 90 percent of successful leadership is highly attributable to their emotional intelligence. Figure 1, provided in the appendix, shows the correlation between a person's success and their level of experience, emotional intelligence, and IQ (Cherniss & Goleman, 2001). Although high competency levels are necessary for leadership there are other underlying factors that will determine whether the competence manifests itself (Macaleer & Shannon, 2002). Furthermore, having emotional intelligence does not guarantee successful leadership because failure is possible as illustrated in figure 1. A further study conducted by Goleman (2001) demonstrates that previous work experience and a high level of emotional intelligence is the most powerful combination that breeds success in leaders. Generally, IQ is an important qualification but emotional intelligence is the facet to effective leadership."

Abstract
This dissertation proposal examines the relationship that exists between the role of 'emotional intelligence' and 'effective leadership and job success'. According to the paper, the theory of emotional intelligence states that emotional intelligence "is a combination of the intelligence we have that helps us both know and manage ourselves well, and the intelligence that we have that helps us understand, motivate and relate effectively to other people." The paper further discusses how even the most academically brilliant among us are vulnerable to being undone by unruly emotions.

Abstract
This paper explains that the Mayer and Salovey's model of emotional intelligence (EI) states that emotional intelligence, which is a person's capacity to understand emotional information and to reason with emotions, can be divided into four branches of abilities. The author stresses that emotional intelligence should not be perceived as just an added factor to IQ. The paper discusses five component abilities of EI: self-awareness, management, motivation, empathy and handling relationships.

From the Paper
"Thus, emotional intelligence is really important to attaining and maintaining good leadership qualities. And it is true. Knowledge about numbers, language, marketing stuffs or even about military, finance, church and the people among other are important, but that does not assure that one can be an effective leader if he/she has all those qualities. Compassion for the people, commitment for the job, passion to work and to understanding the needs of the people around, being able to empathize - these are equally important attributes of the leader and even of the most ordinary citizen."

Summary
From the Paper
"Early theorists often remarked that knowledge of and strategizing over the emotions of workers was tantamount to manipulative management practices, and that emotions were to be controlled first by the individual. The beginnings of EI were quite negative, as theorists did not find the link in exceptional performance and positive management approaches to fostering and sustaining strong emotions of achievement, growth and recognition. The first theorists felt that emotions were to be controlled by the individual or he or she would succumb to their influences (Young, 1936; Schaffer, Gilmer & Schoen, 1940)."

Abstract
This paper explains that success in today's intricate, global business environment depends not only on the individual's knowledge of the subject or process, but also on his or her emotional intelligence, the level of ability to understand other people, what motivates them, and how to work cooperatively with them. The author points out that, although there are various testing procedures for EI, at this time there is no brief, objective, theoretically grounded measure of EI, which is generally acceptable in terms of reliability and validity. The paper recommends that organizations can help employees develop emotional competencies, even in the absence of measurement, by employing 'best practices' guidelines.

From the Paper
"Although Akers & Porter did not provide any extensive valid EQ test procedure, they did suggest a self test (see appendix), the value of which might lies in convincing CPAs, or any skill worker, of the value of EQ recognition. They also offered compelling statistics, at least in that limited field. "A study of partners at a large public accounting firm showed that those with significant strengths in self-management contributed 78% more incremental profit than partners who did not have these skills." While that was only one of the EQ components they enumerated, those with strong social sills had added 110% more to profit than those with only self-management skills. Conversely, CPAS with only significant analytical reasoning skills contributed only 50% more incremental profit."

Abstract
This paper explains that a series of studies have linked emotional intelligence (EI) with increased performance outcomes in the workplace such as employee effectiveness ratings, sales quota indices, leadership capacity, career commitment and managerial advancement. The author points out that the commonly accepted models of emotional intelligence (EI), which differ from the logical type termed as IQ or general intelligence, share several basic concepts including self-awareness, self-management, social awareness and relationship management. The paper suggests that hypotheses for research should be to acknowledge the need to establish further the connection between emotional intelligence and work outcomes and to establish the greater impact of EI scores on sales performance as contrasted to IQ scores.

From the Paper
"The Goleman-Boyatzis-Hay Emotional Competency Inventory is also based on a series of statements - but since it's a 360-degree instrument, individuals other than the test's subject are asked to answer the same questions about that subject. In this case, the ratings run from one to seven, with one being "slightly" and seven, "very." In practical terms, the Goleman-Boyatzis-Hay approach has focused less on training emotional intelligence than on addressing specific deficiencies in those competencies."

Abstract
This paper explores the academic research surrounding emotional intelligence and its connection to a more efficient work environment. The paper discusses the existing credible information on emotional intelligence and relates it to work performance and leadership. The paper concludes that there is not enough quantitative research to make any claims as to the importance of emotional intelligence to increased productivity.
From the Paper
"Goleman's book extrapolated many of the benefits and theory behind emotional intelligence from related fields. Likewise, we find that this same factor has carried over into a majority of the academic studies as well. There are many assumptions and subjectively assessed benefits were included as evidence of increased productivity associated with increased emotional intelligence. Only two studies were found that measured productivity as a result of emotional intelligence in a concrete manner that meets academic standards. The first was the study of insurance salesmen addressed earlier in this research."

Abstract
The paper defines emotional intelligence as a type of social intelligence that involves the capability to monitor one's own and others' emotions, to categorize among them, and to use the information to guide one's thinking and actions. It examines the history of this term and how it was applied in the academic world. It also examines the book on the subject by New York writer Daniel Goleman. The paper covers areas such as the four branches of emotional intelligence, emotions and their significance and human emotional wants.
From the Paper
"Current debate of Emotional Intelligence was publicized across the America from the cover of Time, to a best selling book by Daniel Goleman, to an episode of the Oprah Winfrey show. Nevertheless, EI is not some simply dismissed ?neopsycho-babble EI has its heredity in the concept of "social intelligence," first identified by E.L. Thorndike in 1920. Psychologists have been discovering other intelligences for some time now, and grouping them mainly into three groups: Abstract intelligence (the ability to understand and manipulate with verbal and mathematic symbols) Concrete intelligence (the ability to understand and manipulate with objects) Social intelligence (the ability to understand and relate to people)."
