Self-Control is one of the Four Domains of Emotional Intelligence

The four domains of emotional intelligence are:

·Self-awareness/anger management

·Self-control

·Social Awareness

·Relationship Management

Anger management is actually the key to managing all intense, negative emotions. Emotions determine our styles of communication as well as our ability to make decisions. Anger is a common symptom of stress.

All legitimate anger management classes, as well as Executive Coaching Programs, must include an assessment that is designed to determine the participants level of functioning in managing anger, recognizing and managing stress, preferred styles of communication and the skill level in exhibiting empathy.

Following the non-psychiatric assessment, skill enhancements are provided via individual Coaching or small group facilitation. Both methods of intervention include client workbooks, DVDs, and videos.

Anger management coaching is, and should be, viewed as a positive intervention for people interested in increasing their emotional intelligence.
