(K2) Theories of Emotional Intelligence Flashcards
Goleman's v Salovey & Mayer
(K2) - How does Salovey and Mayer’s EI model application to coaching differs from Goleman’s EI Model?
Salovey and Mayer’s model tends to focus more on developing the individual’s emotional intelligence from a cognitive perspective, while Goleman’s model takes a broader, more social and interpersonal approach, emphasizing the integration of emotional and social competencies for overall success. Both models are complementary, but the choice between them depends on the client’s specific needs and context in coaching.
(K2) - What are the main points of Salovey and Meyer EI model and how to apply to coaching practice?
This model identifies four key branches of emotional intelligence that describe how individuals handle emotions in themselves and others. These branches provide a roadmap for understanding and applying emotional intelligence in various contexts, including coaching practice.
1. Perceiving Emotions - The ability to accurately recognize and interpret emotions in oneself and others, through facial expressions, voice tone, and other non-verbal cues.
2. Facilitating Thought with Emotions - The ability to harness emotions to enhance thinking and problem-solving.
3. Understanding Emotions - The ability to understand emotional information, including recognizing how emotions evolve and how they can change over time.
4. Managing Emotions - The ability to regulate and manage emotions effectively, both in oneself and in interactions with others.
(K2) - What are the key points of Goleman EI model?
- Self-Awareness - The ability to recognize and understand one’s own emotions and their effect on thoughts and behavior.
- Self-Regulation - The ability to manage or control one’s emotions, especially in stressful situations, and to adapt to changing circumstances.
- Motivation - The drive to achieve for the sake of accomplishment, not just external rewards.
- Empathy - The ability to understand the emotions, needs, and concerns of others, and to respond appropriately.
