This depends on workplace positive environment and in the quality of people involved.

Work environment depends upon the employee’s involvement with the work, organization culture, and the relationship among the workforces. It may accordingly be good or bad.

Workplace

The Workplace is  a place where work is done.  It applies for all the type of work done  from morning to next morning, 24 x 7. The human being is blessed by god and is different than animals. He can think and act, rethink and perform.

The actions associated with human being not only help him to sustain life but do more for their generations to come.

Success is the ultimate gain of all actions. Failures  in achieving success help us to learn more, which further help us to gain the success.

Toggle the following topics related to EI

The technical knowledge is an important requirement for selecting human resources (HR) for various disciplines and department. Usually HR selection is done based on technical knowledge and objectively tested for Intelligent Quotient (IQ)

Try understanding Emotion Intelligence subject for successful and happy life. Emotional intelligence is the ability to sense, understand, and effectively apply the power and acumen of emotions as a source of human energy, information, connection, and influence. — Robert K. Cooper. Ph.D.

 In IQ the cognitive abilities are assessed through vocabulary reading, comprehension and mathematical and reasoning skills and assessment is based on the scores assigned to assess intelligence abilities. And this practice exists today, also in higher educational competitions and is recommended in various private and government organization and in the international transfers of human resources. (It is based more on objectivity)

 

 

In year 1985 emotional intelligence (EI, also known as Emotional Quotient EQ) was advocated, but ultimately Daniel Goleman in 1995 made efforts for its better understanding and use.

 EI/ EQ is individual’s ability to identify, understand, evaluate, control, and express emotions of self and others and groups. (It is based more on subjectivity) Together IQ and EQ provide success in practically all the fields.

IQ+EI/EQ=Makes one more successful.

If you want maximal productivity and if you want work that gets the best results, you want the people doing that work to be in the optimal brain state for the work. You are a person who can evict them from the zone of optimal performance by slothfully handling your own interactions with them. So, it’s up to you to take responsibility for your impact on their ability to work at their best. — Daniel Goleman
