INTRODUCTION
Emotional intelligence which is also known as emotional quotient indicates to the ability
to interpret, utilise, and manage your own emotions, feelings in a positive manner to alleviate
prosody, effective communication. In addition, emotional intelligence also entails empathising
with other individuals and overcoming challenges and defusing ambivalence (Abdelkreem and
et. al., 2021). The Genos Emotional Intelligence Report is considered as the best measure of
emotional intelligence for the leaders. This report generally tells an individual about how they
emotionally demonstrate the intelligent leadership competencies on contrary to other individual.
The Genos Emotional Intelligence report is majorly behaviour-grounded measured. This mainly
renders the perception into how well someone exhibit emotionally intelligent workplace
demeanour from the most credible source available. The report entails a brief discussion of
theoretical foundation of Emotional Intelligence and its relevance to effective leadership and
encompasses the level of experiences of emotional intelligence and effectiveness of personal and
workplace relationships with others (Kadadi, S., & Bharamanaikar, S. R. (2020).
A brief discussion of the theoretical foundation of Emotional Intelligence and its relevance to
effective leadership.
The major core of emotional intelligence is self-awareness of an individual. According to
emotional intelligence theories, there are three main branches which includes the abilities model,
the trait model and the last one entails the mixed model. As an effective leadership, I am
responsible to uphold emotional intelligence in the community. Self-awareness among the
community is vital to protect their emotional capabilities. As a leader, I consider this result to be
effective for human emotional development because it holds a big impact on my personal life
experiences and these theories of emotional intelligence such as self-awareness, self-control on
certain emotions, other adaptabilities. It also enhanced my achievement orientation, positive
outlook towards life certainty and empathy towards others helped me better interpret the
emotional intelligence in every circumstance (Kotsou and et. al., 2019). For effective leadership
and spreading awareness in people, other theories such as coaching and mentoring others also
helped me to render society to better understand the significances of life associated self-
awareness. Theories for instance conflict management abilities rendered my leadership abilities
to provide a healthy lifestyle living and empathy towards other people as we never know what

everyone is going through their lives every day. So according to me this awareness and
emotional well-being is a personal and social influenced aspect which should be taken into
consideration effectively. The theory talks about the teamwork spirit which is vital to have in our
day-to-day life as this aspect ids in easy interpretation of our work and aids the environment with
positive outcomes. Organisational awareness and awareness towards workplace also aid in
rendering a healthy workforce within the organisation and this influences fecundity in the
organisational working system (Kozlowski and et. al., 2018). As an effective leadership, the
theory also dignifies my inspirational leadership quality and bring forth healthy leadership
qualities in me to which I pass on the community people to spread awareness towards masses.
Your initial reactions to your results: provide at least two examples of where you have
experienced your level of emotional intelligence assisting or limiting your capacity to influence
other people.
My initial reaction to the leadership outcomes was sound as the responses were quite
dignifies among the community people and in my workplace space. My experiences of emotional
intelligence in assistance to influence other people was when I was able to accept the criticism
and the responsibilities of self-awareness. There were masses who criticised and the later they
accepted my responses towards emotional intelligence (MacCann and et. al., 2020). The result
also entails my experience when I was being able to move on after my making a mistake, when I
was vulnerable to share my feelings with others and solve problems in ways that work for
everyone.
Your initial thoughts on how you can continue to develop your level of emotional intelligence to
enhance the effectiveness of your personal and workplace relationships.
It is vital for an individual to develop a self-awareness of emotional intelligence towards
their lifestyles and apply them in personal, social, and emotional interpretation. At workplace, it
is important that I develop a healthy workplace environment by starting off myself, determining
employee’s strengths and weaknesses as a self-evaluation. I’ll define my workplace guidelines to
aid the employees and understand their thoughts and opinions (Sánchez-Álvarez and et. al.,
2020). Emotional intelligence also entails stress management, and so it is important for me to
develop a sense of healthy interaction with my colleagues to encourage communication among
my colleagues to develop a healthy workplace environment.

CONCLUSION
From the above discussion, it is being conferred that emotional intelligence is well-
known as emotional proportion which implies to the ability to clarify, use, and operate your own
feelings, beliefs in a constructive approach to alleviate inflection, efficient interaction. In
accumulation, emotive intelligence likewise entails commiserating with other entities and
overwhelming tasks and resolving contradiction. Theories of emotional intelligence such as self-
awareness, self-control on certain emotions, other adaptabilities enhance the abilities of
emotional and self-awareness balances t6o lead a healthy life.
