According to the results, the strongest aspect of my emotional intelligence is Relationship Management. This was followed by Social Awareness.
It is interesting that my scores for self-awareness and self-management both came out as my lowest score. It appears that I do not know myself very well.
But when I looked at Daniel Goleman's framework of Emotional Competences I can't help but agree with the results of my assessment. My self-confidence can sometimes be low. My self-control can be rubbish (e.g. poor eating and exercising habits sometimes.) Whilst I believe that I am trustworthy and conscientious, I am not always very quick to adapt.
In terms of my social competences I think that I am very service oriented and have an awareness of what good service involves. I believe that I have good leadership skills and am aware of the need for different parts of an organisation to work well together. I am frequently told that I can be influential within my establishment, and a good communicator. I am good at building teams and can be a catalyst for change, when needed.
So what have I learned? I need to be more reflective about myself. I need to be more confident in my own abilities.
