Abstract
Emotional intelligence in its basic sense is defined as the term representing the ability of an individual to understand his/her own emotions as well as others. 21st century is considered globally as knowledge-based society by eminent scholars, policy makers, stake holders etc, the question still remains unanswered is 1. Have we achieved 100% literacy rate globally? 2. Is there a sustainable development in global Economy? 3. Is there an Economic and Social narrow down between developed and developing nations of the world in terms of Education, Health, Industrialization? The inventions in 20th century contributed to a large extent providing material comfort to both developed and developing nations without addressing the emotional well-being of its citizens the core constituents of human capital. Therefore, the present-day global learning environment is expected to refine the emotional intelligence trait of teachers, the key players in shaping the society to a well-equipped emotionally successful global innovator.
Highlights
In order to equip the society with emotionally successful global innovators, it necessary to consider the four dimensions of emotional intelligence namely: a) the cognitive ability b) tolerance c) ego and d) decision making
A.Megias et al (2017) conducted a neurobiological study to find the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI) and cognitive ability by performing an emotional go/no go task on two groups of 22 participants with low and high EI by recording their brain activity using EEG technique measuring ERP values between the frontal and central regions of the brain, Participants with higher EI showed a larger amplitude deflections reflecting a greater capacity for cognitive control related to changes in conflict monitoring, and to a better detection and evaluation of the emotional stimuli
The results showed that the groups with low and high EI showed significant relationship with cool task while the high EI group was better at carrying out the hot task
Summary
In order to equip the society with emotionally successful global innovators, it necessary to consider the four dimensions of emotional intelligence namely: a) the cognitive ability b) tolerance c) ego and d) decision making. Intelligent people recognize their strengths and weaknesses, know how to manage stress, can work well with others, are socially aware and develop strategies to help them reach their goals in life, all of which contribute to greater levels of happiness. A.Megias et al (2017) conducted a neurobiological study to find the relationship between EI and cognitive ability by performing an emotional go/no go task on two groups of 22 participants with low and high EI by recording their brain activity using EEG technique measuring ERP values between the frontal and central regions of the brain, Participants with higher EI showed a larger amplitude deflections reflecting a greater capacity for cognitive control related to changes in conflict monitoring, and to a better detection and evaluation of the emotional stimuli. EI matters and if cultivated affords one the opportunity to realize a more fulfilled and happy life
