Emotional intelligence is the ability to deal in a mature and understanding way with others in all situations, however challenging. One requirement for emotional intelligence is what we call self awareness.

Being able to maturely handle emotion and exercise restraint is important in all relationships. People who have this ability are said to be self regulated. People who are emotionally intelligent people are also self motivated. They are usually resilient and optimistic when they encounter disappointment and are driven by an inner ambition rather than by other considerations.

This ability is important in effective relationships and for crisis management. Peo

Social intelligence is the ability to get along well with others and to get them to cooperate with you when required. Social intelligence is mostly learned. It develops from experience with people and learning from success and failures in social settings. Employees were earlier treated and locked upon as service providers.

Success and failure are based on how you manage your time. Pleasure and pain, stress and relaxation, grief and humour - everything centres around time management.
