I came across this service when I was preparing materials on self esteem for our Love 1A class. They provide workshops for teachers and emphasize building strong self esteem, coping with bullies, and eventually they began to speak of emotional intelligence. I'm not up to date on all their materials, but as I updated their URL, I discovered their materials advertising workshops for major corporations and schools to train their people in "emotional intelligence." I downloaded and revised for easier reading a couple of their files. In this shared reading I'd like you to try to understand the theory of emotional intelligence and how it applies in the Naked Space. Where they are suggesting workshops for sale, I'll be asking you to draw on our theoretical resources to actually use emotional intelligence to improve our exhibits and discourse.


  • I want you to come away from this shared reading realizing that there's a lot more to intelligence than IQ tests. Emotional intelligence is about your IQ when it comes to interpersonal relationships, of which our families, communities, and enterprises all exist.
