Measure your empathy, self-regulation, motivation, and social awareness.
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is the ability to recognize, understand, manage, and use emotions effectively. Research shows that EQ is a stronger predictor of success in relationships, leadership, and well-being than traditional IQ. This assessment measures your emotional competencies across key dimensions.
The concept of Emotional Intelligence was popularized by psychologist Daniel Goleman in his 1995 bestselling book, though the term was first coined by Peter Salovey and John Mayer in 1990. Their research revealed that emotional abilities — not just cognitive ones — play a critical role in life success. Studies show EQ accounts for up to 58% of job performance across all industries, and people with high EQ earn an average of $29,000 more per year than those with low EQ.
