Analysis Section 1: Building emotional intelligence.
Emotional intelligence can be evolved and increased over time by time, by using proper
and appropriate measures. In general words it is the ability and capability of an individual to
manage their negative emotions in order to lead a positive and productive life. The main
elements and aspects of emotional intelligence is self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation and
social skills(Blair, 2014). Building emotional intelligence is very essential for the employees and
staff members who come from socially backward classes and backgrounds in order to deal with
others confidently. Emotional intelligence can be defined as capability to mange, understand and
express own feelings so that one is not burdened by the negative thoughts and emotions. For
increasing and building emotional intelligence following key points are very essential :
Ability of reducing Negative Emotions
This is the main aspect of Emotional Intelligence, for the employees of UNICEF it is very
essential that they reduce their negative thoughts and emotions in order to conduct their tasks

and activities in ore efficient manner. The heads of the UNICEF can ensure this by providing
equal opportunities and facilities to each and every employee of the organization.
The Ability of express difficult emotions under necessary circumstances
One method to consider when needing to express difficult emotions is the XYZ technique - I feel
X when you do Y in situation Z. All the employees who work under one roof are same, it is very
essential fore the organizational heads of the UNICEF to give desired recognition to its each and
every employee so that they can develop positive and motivated feelings within
them(Joseph,2015).
The individuals who come from backward classes and minority group are generally very
vulnerable to the internal and external forces of the business environment, so it s very essential
for the leaders and managers of the UNICEF to keep on check that such employees are treated
equally by the other members of the organization, and there is no discrimination at any level pf
the firm(McCleskey, 2016).
Analysis Section 2: Building specific self-management skills.
Self management skills are the skills that are necessary and essential for the one through
out their lives. It revolves around setting goals and objectives for the life and managing time in
order to achieve them. These are the characteristics that helps the employees to feel more
responsible regarding their duties and responsibilities and to be more productive at the work
place in order to meet the requirements of the organization. For the employees who comes from
backward classes and minority groups it is very essential to build such skills in order to work
properly and efficiently at the workplace(Poureslami, 2016). For the employees and the staff
members who belong from the disadvantaged backgrounds and from minority groups special
kinds of training and developing programs should be organized by the organizations like
UINICEF in order to provide them proper information about there work and to develop their
technical and interpersonal skills. Such programs helps in developing the employees so that they
can build up self confidence and esteem with them and conduct their duties with full
respect(Robinson, 2016). Such things also helps in developing the sense of responsibility among
the one. Self management is sub divided under three skills, which is very important to develop
for the staff members who come from socially backward groups and classes:

others. It is the tool of developing sense of responsibility within self.

authority which is given to some one regarding any specific task or activity.
Management skills helps the employees to structure their goals and objectives and helps
UNICEF,UK to achieve their mission and vision very effectively(Lee, 2017).
Analysis Section 3: Building energy management skills
The main basis of energy management is that it revolves around the planning and
operating the operations of the energy production and energy consumption units(What is an
Energy Management System, 2015). Building energy management skills is important for the
employees of the UNICEF because of the following reason:

For the organizations like UNICEF it is very essential for them to maintain the sustainable
position in the environment so that they can serve effectively and efficiently conduct their work
in order to ensure the welfare of the society. These organization works in highly sensitive
environment so it is very crucial for them to assess the working of each and every members of
their staff. It is also very crucial that they make sure that there is no occurrence of discrimination
taking place in an organization(Wang, 2015).Such things also helps in developing the sense of

responsibility among the one. The organization like UNICEF,UK are very large organizational
bodies and it is very essential for them to maintain the sustainable position in the environment.
This firm works to help the poor children, and t conduct their functions in highly sensitive
business environment. Training and Development programs can help very efficiently in building
the self confidence and self esteem of the employees and staff members who belong to minority
groups and backward classes of the society. These programs helps the employees to develop
specific skills that are very essential in order to make them work ready so that they can assess
their duties and responsibilities in most effective manner. Self confidence helps the employees to
develop the self motivated feeling which is very crucial for successful running of the
organization.

programs for the employees who are not ready for conducting their duties.
 Their should be separate team of some individual whose work is to check that all the
employees and staff members are treated equally by other members of the organization.
 Proper punishments and penalties should be assigned for the individual who initiate any
kind of discrimination at the workplace.

analyzing and evaluating the different aspects of the staff members.

essential that they treat each and every employee with full respect and harmony regardless of the
fact, to which social group, class or background they belong. It has also been seen that there are
many such employees who are not work ready because of the less skills and educations. There
