Interpretations:

60-75: Congratulations, indications are that you are doing very well, up into the high end of the emotional
intelligence scale. You know yourself well and have developed healthy, sustaining relationships with others. You
are usually happy, optimistic and feel quite good about what you have accomplished in your life. Because you
already have a solid base, your potential to develop to an even higher level using EI is excellent.

45-59: Your scores indicate that you are doing fairly well. Your self-awareness and relationships with others are
above average. You have achievements you are proud of, are generally are in a good mood, and see the world in
a positive way. There is still room for improvement in all areas and there are times when you feel you are
capable of doing/achieving more than you have. By diligently using EI tools you are able to get even more from
life.

30-44: Your scores indicate that you are struggling somewhat with how you feel, about yourself and your

relationships with others. You are aware of this and are likely open to making some changes. The good news is
that you can make very significant changes by diligently practicing new positive EI behaviors.

15-29: Give yourself credit for answering honestly. Your results indicate that your life is a difficult struggle in a

number of areas. The good news isthat you are able to make significant changes to your life if you are willing to
do what is required. There are countless stories of people who have made drastic changes despite coming from a
difficult place. You will find that once you start seeing changes resulting from your efforts you will begin feeling
much more positive about your life.
