Abstract Educational institutions have traditionally focused primarily on the importance of IQ with less attention given to other types of intelligence. Yet many reserchers are begining to argue that intrapersonal and interpersonal competencies, or emotional intelligence, may be more important for success in life than IQ. It is important, then, for business schools to consider ways to incorporare emotional intelligence skills into each student's “toolbox” for enhanced career success. This article reviews the developing literature on emotional intelligence and discusses a model for incorporating emotional intelligence into the curriculum through the use of assessment tools and experiential exercises.
