Emotional Intelligence and Resilience: Key Determinants of Success in High-Stakes Scenarios
Shriya Das, Preet Kukreja, Khushbu Balsara
ABSTRACT:
In a world where the definition of success transcends intellectual capacity, the role of emotional intelligence and resilience is becoming increasingly prominent. This article explores their symbiotic relationship and the consequential effects on decision-making and success across various high-stakes environments. It signals a paradigm shift towards recognizing the value of emotional acumen. This evolution is exemplified by the Next League Program, which, through the Emotional Resilience and Motivation Quotient (ERMQ) and the Emotional Scale, equips individuals with the tools to quantify and enhance their emotional readiness. A comparative study elucidates the distinct emotional preparedness of program participants. The program’s efficacy is exemplified by the success of ten participants who secured the EB1A Green Card, illustrating the tangible impact of emotional preparedness. Moreover, the article anticipates the extension of these metrics beyond professional development, potentially impacting areas such as competitive sports and academic pursuits. It advocates for the integration of emotional intelligence metrics in broader domains, suggesting that they could be instrumental in nurturing individuals to reach unparalleled levels of achievement, akin to Olympians and Nobel Laureates.
