What is Emotional Intelligence and How Can You Develop it? (Goleman's 5 Component Model) 

My pleasure! Really glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the feedback.

Thank you! Glad you found it helpful :)

It depends on what you mean by exist. Emotional Intelligence or EQ is a conceptual framework, not a physical thing. That means, as with other abstract concepts it cannot be easily measured or proved. Even other measures of intelligence, such as IQ, although widely accepted, are only validated by the metrics they choose to focus upon. However, a lack of undeniable metrics does not stop a model or concept from being important. Take love for example, which is universally seen as important, but there is not one set of metrics for love, held as scientific proof that love exists. As George Box observed, "All models are wrong, but some are useful". That is my experience. Models such as EQ give us a framework to help us explore and understand behaviour, and those differences in behaviour do exist as they are observable.

@@therightquestions1 I mean the concept of "emotional intelligence" is completely absurd. Neuroscience, evolution and the triune brain insight completely disprove it.

@@therightquestions1 Love is a subjective experience and therefore cannot be taught as an academic topic in schools. Focus here, please...

@rubicunduseratiudas1264 It's a framework, just like History, Literature and EVERYTHING INVOLVING HUMANS except maths. Choices have to be made. But you don't have to be so scared.
