If IQ is the measure of one's intellectual ability, then EQ (Emotional Intelligence) would be the measure of everything else. Research has found that a person's EQ level makes up 75% of how successful they end up in life. Cognitive intelligence (book smarts) is only 25% of the equation. In this course, students will develop their emotional intelligence (people smarts). Students will build communication skills, learn to recognize and navigate relationships both personally and professionally, develop self-motivation and resiliency, and work on strategies that help them excel academically and professionally.
