Most of us believe we can improve in some areas. EmoÂtional IntelÂliÂgence LearnÂing SysÂtems (EILS) helps indiÂvidÂuÂals and orgaÂniÂzaÂtions idenÂtify strengths and areas for improveÂment by offerÂing research-derived assessÂments, serÂvices, and mateÂriÂals for achievÂing meanÂingÂful growth and change.  We offer assessÂment, research, conÂsultÂing, and pubÂlishÂing serÂvices focused on person-centered approaches for develÂopÂing imporÂtant social-emotional skills.  Our work is shaped by a forty-plus-year guidÂing phiÂlosÂoÂphy that respects indiÂvidÂual difÂferÂences and healthy ways of being in the world.  Our emphaÂsis is on indiÂvidÂual potenÂtial for intelÂliÂgent self-direction; behavÂiors that lead to posÂiÂtive perÂsonal and orgaÂniÂzaÂtional development.
Our theÂory of human behavÂior is posÂiÂtive, inteÂgraÂtive, and research derived. Our phiÂlosÂoÂphy proÂvides a holisÂtic view of the perÂson based on the assumpÂtion that cogÂniÂtive, affecÂtive, and behavÂioral skills can be learned and develÂoped through transÂforÂmaÂtive learnÂing expeÂriÂences that are relÂeÂvant and meanÂingÂful from the learner’s frame of refÂerÂence.  We believe that peoÂple have the potenÂtial to develop themÂselves in meanÂingÂful and self-valued ways that lead to higher levÂels of perÂsonal well-being, achieveÂment, and life/career effecÂtiveÂness.  Our approach fits extremely well for indiÂvidÂuÂals that believe peoÂple can and do change for the betÂter, and for orgaÂniÂzaÂtions and instiÂtuÂtions that funÂdaÂmenÂtally value their employÂees, clients, and stakeholders.
Our posÂiÂtive assessÂments and emoÂtional learnÂing modÂels are extenÂsions of our guidÂing phiÂlosÂoÂphy and offer pracÂtiÂcal approaches to quanÂtify and develop emoÂtional intelÂliÂgence skills. We see emoÂtional intelÂliÂgence overtly reflected in conÂstrucÂtive thinkÂing processes and wise behavÂiors that improve a person’s qualÂity of life, proÂducÂtivÂity, and success.
EILS Vision
EILS strives for excelÂlence in proÂvidÂing research derived EI-centric assessÂments, learnÂing proÂgrams, prodÂucts, and serÂvices to culÂturÂally and geoÂgraphÂiÂcally diverse clienÂtele. We imagÂine a world in which all peoÂple are colÂlabÂoÂraÂtive and have the opporÂtuÂnity to enjoy health and meanÂingÂful work.
EILS MisÂsion
The misÂsion of EILS is to build healthy and effecÂtive indiÂvidÂuÂals and orgaÂniÂzaÂtions. PosÂiÂtive perÂsonal and orgaÂniÂzaÂtional changes occur as indiÂvidÂuÂals learn to model and apply the key skills and comÂpeÂtenÂcies of our transÂforÂmaÂtional model of emoÂtional intelligence.
What is the transÂforÂmaÂtive model of emoÂtional intelligence?
It’s a skills-based model that incorÂpoÂrates an eduÂcaÂtional process inteÂgratÂing posÂiÂtive self-assessment with the facilÂiÂtated emoÂtional learnÂing sysÂtem (ELS) to improve qualÂity of life and perÂsonal proÂducÂtivÂity. SpecifÂiÂcally, improveÂments target:
- the accuÂrate knowlÂedge and value of self
- indiÂvidÂual responÂsiÂble actions based on perÂsonal worth and dignity
- a variÂety of strong, healthy relationships
- the abilÂity to work well with others
- proÂducÂtive reacÂtions to the demands and presÂsures of every day life and work
What is posÂiÂtive self-assessment?
PosÂiÂtive self-assessment is a process of non-threatening self-exploration that results in a perÂsonal skills proÂfile which can be used in a disÂciÂplined approach for improvÂing health, hapÂpiÂness, and success.
What is the emoÂtional learnÂing system?
AchievÂing higher levÂels of health, hapÂpiÂness, and career sucÂcess is based on the life skill areas encomÂpassed in the transÂforÂmaÂtive model of emoÂtional intelÂliÂgence. The emoÂtional learnÂing sysÂtem is a disÂciÂplined, five-step approach for learnÂing to model and apply wiser, more approÂpriÂate behavÂior in emoÂtionÂally charged sitÂuÂaÂtions. Â The life skill areas of the transÂforÂmaÂtive model of emoÂtional intelÂliÂgence include:
- InterÂperÂsonal ComÂmuÂniÂcaÂtion Under Stress
- PerÂsonal Leadership
- Self ManÂageÂment in Life and Career
- IntrapÂerÂsonal Development
