May 2021 ATDBR Virtual Meeting
Using Emotional Intelligence Assessments in Leadership Development
Session Summary:
Emotional Intelligence has been identified as a critical skill for effective leaders. However, understanding of exactly what emotional intelligence is and how it can be understood remains low. One way of increasing understanding of emotional intelligence and its aspects is by using assessments tools. The challenge is that many of these assessments are little more than personality quizzes and are backed by little or no science. As a result, they are ineffective at truly helping leaders to develop their emotional quotient (EQ). Fortunately, there is one scientifically validated, statistically normed, trait-based assessment that has proven to be effective in increasing awareness and supporting development - the EQ-i 2.0.
In this session you will learn:
- The critical role emotional intelligence plays in personal and leadership development.
- How developing emotional intelligence can increase personal and leadership effectiveness.
- How emotional intelligence self-assessments can form the foundation of a coaching or development relationship.
- How 360-degree feedback can be used to support development relationships.
- Potential challenges of using emotional intelligence assessments in developing leadership.
- An overview of a tried and tested development process.
