Emotional Intelligence and Debilitative Emotions 

Each week, you will be asked to respond to the prompt or prompts in the discussion forum. Your initial post should be 75-150 words in length, and is due on Sunday. By Tuesday, you should respond to two additional posts from your peers. 

• A friend came to you last week and told you the following: “I’ve had it with my boss. She’s always so overly critical. I lost my temper and quit today. I told her what a horrible manager she was and left then and there. Now I’m afraid to add that job to my resume and to use her as a reference.” 
• Take this brief assessment on Emotional Intelligence: https://memorado.com/emotional_quotient.  
• Share your score and explain how this may help or hinder you in a work and personal environment. 
• In light of what you learned about emotions in Chapter 5 of Looking Out Looking In, what should your friend have done instead?
