Conduct searches for journal articles that address the topics of emotional intelligence (EI) and leadership. Then, go to the Internet and conduct a search for "free emotional intelligence test." In a 2 to 3-page paper, answer the following questions in a clear, detailed manner:
1. How does EI differ from traditional conceptions of intelligence?
2. After completing the emotional intelligence test, do you think that emotional intelligence can be "learned?" Do you see value in focusing on working to increase your emotional intelligence? Why or why not?
3. Is there a relationship between EI and leadership, between EI and motivation? How would you define those relationships?
4. Have you worked for a manager that you think exhibited a high degree of EI? Conversely, have you worked for a manager that exhibited a low level of EI? What was the impact of this manager(s) on your motivation, productivity, and job satisfaction?
