The outcome of this study reveals the need for the financial planning industry to acknowledge emotional intelligence as one of the key roles in self-awareness and social skills. The essence of this study is in realizing that the financial services industry intentionally attracts individuals who display essential sales and marketing characteristics and how EI complemented the sought-after behaviors needed in the industry. This study focuses on an innate ability that would alter existing characteristics making individuals capable of managing stress, a factor that influences the success and profit of a company (Shah & Maheshwari, 2013).
