情商—为何如此重要？
The concept of emotional intelligence has become a very hot topic of psychological research in recent years, especially in regards to how it affects today’s workforce.
情商这个概念近几年成为了心理学研究领域的热议话题，尤其是对当今的职场所产生的影响。
Businesses are essentially people, so anything that impacts the effectiveness of people’s minds also impacts the businesses they run or work for.
本质上来说，企业全靠人，因此任何影响人们心智的发挥的元素同样也会对人所管理和效力的企业产生影响。
In fact, many experts now believe that a person’s emotional intelligence quotient (EQ) may be more important than their IQ and is certainly a better predictor of success, quality of relationships, and overall happiness.
事实上，许多专家现在都相信一个人的情商可能比他们的智商更重要，而且它还是个更好的预言成功，关系的质量和整体幸福感的因素，
It’s interesting to note how the concept of emotional intelligence has evolved over the years, from its inception as something called “social intelligence” all the way back in the 1930’s, to “emotional strength” in the mid-20th century, to its current terminology, “emotional intelligence.”
我们可以有趣的发现情商这个概念已经发展了多年，从19世纪30年代被普遍的称为“社会智商”到20世纪中期的“情感的力量”，再到当前的术语“情商”。
But whatever we call it, emotional intelligence is, in layman’s terms, our level of ability to:
但是无论我们用什么词来表述“情商”，通俗来说，它指我们的水平能力：
