Emotional Intelligence Worksheet

Emotional Intelligence Worksheet Overview

Emotional intelligence is the ability to notice, understand, and manage feelings, both your own and other people's. Psychologists Peter Salovey and John Mayer introduced the idea in 1990, and psychologist and writer Daniel Goleman made it widely known. Many researchers see it as a set of skills, and a review of training studies found that people tended to improve after training.

This worksheet uses the four skills in Goleman's model: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship skills. You will rate each skill, log moments when your feelings ran high, and pick one skill to practice for a week.

In this worksheet, we’ll:

• Explain the four skills in Goleman's model of emotional intelligence
• Give you a table to rate each skill and note when it is hardest
• Provide space to log moments when your feelings ran high
• Walk you through picking one skill to practice this week
