The Emotional Quotient (EQ)

Emotional Quotient (EQ) refers to a person’s ability to recognize, understand, and manage their own emotions, as well as perceive and influence the emotions of others. It involves skills like empathy, self-awareness, emotional regulation, and effective communication. High EQ helps individuals navigate social situations, build strong relationships, and handle stress appropriately. Unlike IQ, which measures intellectual abilities, EQ emphasizes emotional intelligence, playing a crucial role in personal and professional success by fostering better understanding and connection with others.
