Emotional Intelligence Awareness Month is observed every October and aims to educate individuals about the importance of emotional intelligence (EQ) in both personal and professional settings. Founded by the Emotional Intelligence Institute, this campaign encourages people to enhance their understanding of emotions and improve their interpersonal relationships. Activities during this month include taking EQ tests, reading literature on emotional intelligence, and practicing foundational principles such as observing feelings and taking responsibility for one's emotions. The initiative highlights the significance of managing emotions for healthier interactions and provides educational materials through the institute's website. The hashtag associated with this observance is #EmotionalIntelligenceAwarenessMonth.
