Emotional intelligence is the ability to perceive, integrate, understand and utilize emotions in an effective and meaningful way in order to cope and adapt to the situation. It's a hot topic at the moment, here we speak with the first CRNA to be certified in emotional intelligence. Stress and burn out is a common problem in the CRNA community, handling that could have a real impact on performance and outcomes.

Our guest mentions the Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test™ which can be found here: https://www.mhs.com/

She also advocates "The Student EQ Edge: Emotional Intelligence and Your Academic and Personal Success: Student Workbook" which can be found on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Student-EQ-Edge-Emotional-Intelligence/dp/1118094603
