Emotional intelligence or EI is a term coined in 1990 when John Mayer and Peter Salovey defined this phenomenon and soon developed over time. The two researchers discovered that the ability to understand and sympathize with other people significantly affects how a person functions in society. It is because emotional intelligence allows communication that can affect good relationships with other society members.

EI can also improve interpersonal communication and affect work performance, leadership, and an overall sense of satisfaction and happiness in life.
