A theory of emotion is critical in understanding how individuals apply the skills of emotionally competent behavior in their emotionally evocative transactions with the environment. The functionalist theoretical perspective proposed that emotion is generated when something significant impacts an individual and thus elicits a readiness to act (Campos, Mumme, Kermoian & Campos, 1994).
The model of emotional intelligence promoted by Mayer and Salovey in 1998 involves four fundamental emotion-related skills namely (1) identification and expression of emotion, (2) use of emotion to facilitate thinking, (3) understanding emotion, and (4) management of emotion in ourselves and others.
For a better understanding of the study, the conceptual paradigm of the present study is illustrated in figure 1 in the following

(2015) and Choi, et.al. (2012) proposed that gender is a factor in one’s adaptability with regard to his career. The former’s study suggested that females compared with males have higher ability when it comes to adapting, while the latter’s study is in contrast as gender doesn’t influence one’s career maturity. Moreover, Harry and his colleagues’ (2015) study also explored the importance of developing one’s control, commitment and how one perceives challenge and how it can largely affect one’s coping ability.
One factor that might also affect a person’s decision and eagerness to pursue his preferred career is the influence of the Family. Choi, et.al. (2012), concluded that an individual's relationship with his parents can affect his readiness in pursuing and his maturity towards his career. Aside from career maturity, Fan and his colleagues (2014) also suggests that family can have an impact towards a person’s indecisiveness with regard to his career path.
Stress about employment can affect an individual’s career choice. This happens if a person perceives others’ expectation of them to be highly valuable than their own, thus resulting to stress and indecisiveness (Park, iChoi, Nam, & Lee,
The article provided data specifically from two elementary schools to children grades 3 to 5 that participating in school programs. Participants also were closely split by gender being 51% male and 49% female out of the total number of participants (Montanez, Jenkins, Rodriguez, McCord, Meyer
The view of change using this theory is that a person’s career path is unpredictable and change will happen in ways that a person will not expect. People need to be prepared for changes in their career path that come from unplanned events. Additionally, people have their own patterns of behaviors but that can change based on future events. The role of the counselor is to manage expectations, teach clients about the chaos that occurs in their career development, and build resiliency when unpredictable difficult events occur. When managing expectations, counselors must give the clients realistic expectations so that they do not believe that their career path will follow their exact plan without having unpredictable events delay or remove them from their plan entirely.
This theory is about career decision marketing and development based on social learning. Career decisions are the product of an uncountable number of learning experiences made possible by encounters with the people, institutions and events in a person’s particular environment. Krumboltz propose that people choose their careers based on what they have learned. The four main factors that influence career choice are genetics influences, environmental conditions and events, learning experiences and task approach skills. Genetic influences are inherited rather than learned such as physical appearance.

The intention of this paper is to explain on the relevancy of ‘Emotional Intelligence’ in which of how it is connected in organizational behavior. ‘Emotional Intelligence’ (EQ) was first introduced to the public in 1995 by a physiologist named Dr. Daniel Goleman, even other sources were aware that it may have discussed earlier to date as of 1985. According to Goleman, ‘Emotional Intelligence’ is a type of social intelligence that involves the ability to monitor one’s own and other’s feeling and emotions, to discriminate among them and to use this information to guide one’s thinking and actions. In the context of organizational behavior, the ‘Emotional Intelligence’ principles provide a new way to understand and assess people's behaviors, management
During adolescent years, the average child fantasizes over what career they’ll occupy for the rest of their working lives. Whether it be a fireman, lawyer, doctor, possibly the next president of the United States. This envisioning almost never ends how that young child thought it would, reality comes into play. The aspects such as: money, supply and demand and education all narrow the possible choice careers for that maturing child. It no longer becomes about what they want to do, but about what is necessary of them.
POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES Parental Influences on the Career Choices & Decision-Making of Adolescents Benitez(2017). The teen years can be an exciting time as a teen looks ahead to future career choices. The amount of time parents spend with a teen, the career choices of the parents and family environment all have an influence on career choices. Parental impact can be both positive and negative in nature.
Children are frequently told of the importance of having a career and how his/her educational experiences are geared towards securing their future by achieving this goal. A career can be one’s passion, or a “calling”, as it were. It is encouraged to make the most of one’s talents and possibly fashion them into a profession, or to seize the opportunity the moment they are presented. The choices are vast and can be overwhelming to any adolescent or adult for that matter struggling to make the right decision. What they are not told is how the universe can play a vital role in deciding their future.
Golemen’s model of intelligence also regards it as mixed intelligence consists of cognitive skill and personality traits but focuses in workplace performance. Mayer and Salovey 's (1997) model of emotional intelligence consists of four different branches including; perception of emotion, emotional facilitation, understanding emotions, and management of emotions. Perception of emotion is the capability to become self-aware of the feelings and to convey the feelings and emotional necessities appropriately to others. Emotional facilitation is the capability to differentiate between the several feelings people are experiencing and recognize those which are affecting their thinking processes. Understanding emotions is the capability to understand complicated feelings.
Emotional Intelligence The ability to recognize human emotions, to understand the intentions, motivations and desires of others and their own, and the ability to manage their emotions and the emotions of other people in order to solve practical problems. There are four factors of emotional intelligence: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness and relationship management. Emotional intelligence is also known as a part of the effective type of leadership. It is very important to understand how the brain operates and how emotional response system works in Apple Company.
Definitions: Emotional intelligence is described as the ability to monitor one’s own and other people’s emotions, to discriminate between different emotions and label them approximately and to use emotional information to guide thinking and behavior. It reflects on the abilities like intelligence, empathy and emotions to enhance thought and understanding of interpersonal dynamics. Here we discuss the
Theoretical assumptions: People used to see career counselling as making a decision in regard to which career path to follow after having one or two meetings with a career counsellor (Krumboltz, Foley & Cotter, 2013). According to Hall (2004) this few has changed over the past two decades and it is clear that career development is not a onetime choice but rather a lifelong process. Savickas (2012) argues that the form of career intervention must change just like the form of work changes to reflect the labor needs of the twenty-first century. Krumboltz, Foley and Cotter (2013) argues that clients must create more satisfying lives for themselves with the help of counsellors. A model of career counselling, the happenstance learning theory, helps
The term “spiritual formation” can mean diverse things to different people. For me as a Christian, spiritual formation is the process by which God forms a person into His image. The goal of formation, as expressed by Ashbrook (2009), is “a Love Relationship with God…to live fully and freely in His love, and to respond by loving Him as well” (p. 26). Many experiences, both positive and negative, shape an individual’s relationship with God. The journey of formation will be distinctive, and often enigmatic except in hindsight, for each individual.
Searching for the words “Emotional Intelligence” in (thesaurus.com, 2018), would give the meaning; “the capacity to be aware of, control, and express one's emotions, and to handle interpersonal relationships judiciously and empathetically”. Emotional intelligence is the key to both personal and professional success. In many years, emotional intelligence has been considered as a requirement in order to achieve effective leadership (Yusof, et al, 2014). This essay will discuss the definition of emotional intelligence and explain it in depth, it will preview and explain the four areas of emotional intelligence, how these areas are used, and then will explain a bit of leadership and how can leadership be effective mentioning some of the areas of
