Summary: | Management education is not a rare domain anymore. People learn, study and teach management in a diversity of branches of knowledge or disciplines. In this perspective, management educators are required to be people-smart.The ability to administer their inner feelings as well as to work with people will improve the quality and effectiveness of management teaching.To reach this, personal intelligences which include general
intelligence (Intelligence Quotient {IQ}), emotional intelligence (Emotional Quotient {EQ}) and interpersonal intelligence (People Quotient {PQ}) are essential. . This paper will tackle the issue of enhancing interpersonal intelligence (PQ), which also takes into account the aspect of emotional intelligence (EQ) among management
educators.To ensure success in interpersonal intelligence, several criteria can well predict people’s quotient.These are the ability to understand students, the ability to grasp people/students’ ability to clearly establish
thoughts and feelings, ability to ask and offer feedback, ability to serve as a determinant to how others act and think, ability to engage in and resolve conflicts, and, ability to work with others effectively.It is anticipated that
management education will not only perform well in the content and structure but in the psychological aspects of management educators as well. |
