Highlands Ranch, CO (PRWEB) April 8, 2009 -- Intellect and functional skills are clearly important in the workplace. However, research shows that emotional intelligence (EQ) is an even more important factor in effective leadership and high performance. Colorado State University, in collaboration with the TRACOM Group, recently conducted a research study showing the link between EQ and TRACOM's measure of Versatility. Both EQ and Versatility have been shown to relate to workplace performance. Emotional intelligence is the ability to perceive, control and evaluate emotions to improve your work and personal life.

TRACOM will present the results of the study during a webinar titled "Emotional Intelligence: What's New, What's True - Improving EQ with Behavioral Style." The webinar will be broadcast live on Wednesday, April 29 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time.
