1. Greater sales
A study of over 40 Fortune 500 companies revealed that sales people with high emotional intelligence out performed those with medium to low EI by 50%.
2. Greater productivity
That same study revealed that technical programmers who were measured in the top 10% of the emotional intelligence competencies were cranking out new software three times faster than those with lower measurements. Even more astounding, a Dallas based company who underwent measuring all of its staff determined that employees with a high EI were 20 times more productive than those with a lower score.
3. Stability of staff
Another Fortune 500 had been using personality assessment for years in an attempt to slow down turn over in its high turn over sales force with little success. By implementing EI
assessments, and including EI topics like stress management, self awareness and social skills, they were able to stop the brain drain and increase retention by 67%. The firm calculated it saved over $30 million by reducing recruiting and training costs and increasing sales through retention.
4. Worker satisfaction
A Midwest community bank was forced to cut staff by 30% due to the tough economic times we have experienced recently. The remaining staff was evaluated for their emotional intelligence which resulted in certain changes in organizational structure. People were assigned positions where there EI was best suited for the task. The result is the bank now produces more with fewer people because the fewer people are now better suited for their positions and find them more fulfilling.

Two studies, one for retail operations and one involving the construction industry determined that there was a correlation between low emotional intelligence and theft or shrinkage. In addition, persons with a low emotional intelligence score were more liklu to have accidents on the job.

A luxury car dealership whose entire marketing plan was built on customer experience and customer service was expanding and wanted to make sure they hired the best customer oriented employees to staff the new facility. The dealership utilized an EI assessment test and EI interviewing techniques that were designed to uncover a high level of empathy in candidates. This process was used to select everyone from the GM down to the valet. One year after opening, the new dealership was rated in the top 10% of the auto companies 200 plus dealers for both sales and customer satisfaction.
