  • Skills for Career and Life Effectiveness® (SCALE®) for mentoring, coaching, and organizational needs assessment.   
  • Resiliency Skills Assessment Process© (RESAP©) for developing resiliency skills in business and government.  
  • Service Skills Assessment Process© (SESAP©) for developing service skills in business and government. 
  • Sales Skills Assessment Process© (SASAP©) for developing sales skills in business.  
The overall goal of the certification workshop is for professionals to have the knowledge and comfort to immediately begin using EILS learning material and integrated positive assessments.




February 23-24, 2012, 8:30am - 4:30pm:  EI Conference with Higher Education, Business, Wellness/Counseling, and K-12 Education. Excellent presenters and programs emphasize the research and 'best practice' examples of EI assessments and interventions for teaching, mentoring, and coaching.

About Wellness from Dr. Darwin Nelson     

 Well Being Model

Dear EITRI Colleagues,

 

During the next five months I will complete a little book on Well-Being, design a two-day well-being professional training seminar, write a seminar leader's guide for doing a one day public seminar, and develop a well-being journal for participants who complete the public seminar.  This is what I will be doing in the coming years as I move more into consulting and training and away from research and development.  Thanks to you and our students our body of work is to the point that our focus needs to shift to implementation and practical applications.  My goal is to create an applied EI centric well being seminar that EITRI colleagues can use in their own private consulting practice and offer in their own communities.    

 

If you are interested in consulting, training, and health psychology I would invite you to come to the Monday workshop during the 9th Annual Institute for Emotional Intelligence (2/20/2012) so that I can introduce you to the new materials.  My goal is to provide you with everything that you need to immediately implement the well-being materials in your own style.  The core dimensions of personal well-being are emotional intelligence (ESAP®), healthy personality (LSTI®), positive supportive relationships (RSM®) and stress management and resiliency skills (Resiliency Skills Assessment Process®, RESAP®).  The new Well-Being book will incorporate the ESAP-A® and the LSTI®.  As an EITRI associate you will also have access to the coaching version of the RSM®, the RESAP®, and checklist.  

 

Emotional Intelligence Learning Systems, Inc. is and always will be Darwin, Gary and Rick.  If we grow a successful business it will be because EITRI colleagues go out and use our materials.  I would ask your assistance, guidance, and suggestions as I develop the well-being materials.  This is the most practical application of all our work and I would like to provide the highest quality materials for your use.  I believe the most valid test of any theory is its practical value for helping people live healthier and happier lives. If EI is truly valuable we should be able to provide a public seminar that would make sense and have value for all people.   

 


I will begin doing well-being seminars with Maxine Trent and Dr. Rhiannon Thomas in the coming months and they are working with me to develop the Seminar Leader's Guide.  In essence I am developing the well-being materials for my own personal use.  I would like to live a long life and my particular struggle is with bad habits that impact my physical health.  I have so many bad habits that I have invented a game called Per-Fect that I play daily with my AWAKE process.  Human beings have two unique abilities; to think reflectively and to be aware of their imperfections.  Since we are all imperfect and aware of the fact it would seem logical that our daily task would be to per-fect our selves.  In the months and years ahead I will be glad to co-lead well-being seminars with you in your own community.  

We live in a stressful and somewhat dysfunctional world and it is a blessing to have you as friends and colleagues.  I hope that you will make it to part or all of our conference.  At your request I will be glad to share the well-being materials with you as I develop them.  They will be in good form for the conference and your feedback and suggestions will certainly improve their value and usefulness.  I have never written a book for the general public or designed a seminar that others could do so I could use your help.  

Warmest Personal Regards,

Darwin Nelson

Business Students Would Benefit from EI Curriculum 

    

Congratulations to Dr. Joseph Ramos-Villarreal and Dr. Glenda Holland on their recent publication in the American Journal Of Business Education (AJBE).  The article, based on Villarreal's doctoral research (2010), concluded that a college business curriculum and its students would benefit from emphasizing the development of EI skills.  Discussing the education-transformative theory of EI, as modeled in the Personal Excellence Map (Nelson, Low, and Hammett, 2007), the authors noted significantly that including EI in the curriculum would help develop positive behaviors that employers seek.  The authors also suggested that students not exposed to a skills-based model of EI in the business curriculum may have more difficulty developing their true leadership capabilities with the positive behaviors needed for both academic and career success (p. 53).  The findings and conclusions align strongly with previous research that connected the education-transformative model of EI with student academic success (Rice, 2006; Smith, 2004; Vela, 2003; & Williams, 2004), career-life satisfaction (Hammett, 2007), resilience (Trapp, 2010), and transformational leadership (Tang, 2007; Tang, Yin, & Nelson, 2010).

Emotional Intelligence Training and Research Institute (EITRI) 

 

EITRI was established as a result of the expressed desire for an association and forum that could facilitate more active involvement and participation with the education-transformative approach of EI.  The EITRI association gained traction recently when it was suggested by a conference participant (thank you Dr. Rhiannon Thomas!) that membership levels be created to provide a more structured and progressive method for  individuals in EI training and the development of EI expertise for members.

    

EITRI's goal, therefore, is to provide a living forum and process for students, workers, and professionals interested in a collaborative network for engaging self, one another, and others in developing emotional intelligence.  Our mission is to help each other develop and deliver training and education, new applications and methodologies, and conduct good research related to transformative EI.  EITRI's current objectives include:  

  • Provide a forum for individuals interested in sharing, learning, developing, and applying transformative EI.   
  • Coordinate the annual conference for EI.  The first Annual Institute for Emotional Intelligence was convened at Texas A&M University-Kingsville in 2004.  The 9th Annual Conference and Institute will convene February 20-25, 2012 in San Antonio, Texas.  
  • Publish The International Journal for Emotional Intelligence (TIJEI).  The  journal will publish peer-reviewed articles on topics related to transformative EI.

There are currently 4 membership levels for individuals and one membership opportunity for organizations and/or institutions to support the EI association.  From basic to most advanced, the four individual membership opportunities include (a) Collegial, (b) Associate, (c) Fellow, and (d) Faculty.  Membership in EITRI provides a wide range of benefits to members including access to a free copy of The International Journal of Emotional Intelligence (TIJEI) (published annually), discounts to conference events, and more. To learn more about EITRI and the transformative approach to EI, please visit the EITRI's new website.
