Daniel Goleman – Prologue – Social Intelligence Emotional and Social Intelligence (ESI) is defined as a set of competencies demonstrating the ability one has to recognize their behaviors, moods, and impulses, and to manage them best according to the situation.

This course could benefit significantly from review by an editor to fix the mistakes in spelling and grammar, and the contradictory and incorrect statements on assessments. ("This 6-step model" followed by "What are some of the seven steps?" | "Elizabeth delivers consistent work each week" is a factually-measurable statement, not an emotional one.) In addition, several questions deal with statistics or throwaway remarks rather than core course material, which seems counterproductive. Also, the rhetoric in the course labels behaviors that might be the result of neurodivergence or trauma responses as "low" ESI, i.e. disengaging from emotionally heated situations, having difficulty focusing or sticking to longterm projects. Not very emotionally or socially intelligent to dismiss and borderline denigrate the large portion of the corporate workforce living with neurodivergent conditions, learning disabilities, or PTSD. Do better.
