Some scientists say that a high emotional quotient means someone is self-confident, self-aware, and able to navigate through trying emotional times. EQ is often tied directly to the degree of success one may have in the workplace and in personal relationships. Therefore, some companies offer services to test the emotional quotient of employees.
