00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:06.480
<v Speaker 1>Ninety Bible. Good morning, good morning, good morning, and welcome, welcome, welcome.

2
00:00:06.639 --> 00:00:08.480
<v Speaker 1>He is eight thirty six. We're running a little bit

3
00:00:08.560 --> 00:00:11.199
<v Speaker 1>behind today, but I think you know why the ice

4
00:00:11.240 --> 00:00:13.919
<v Speaker 1>in the snow and getting all the brittany and information

5
00:00:14.199 --> 00:00:16.920
<v Speaker 1>out to you. It is time now for our community

6
00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:21.760
<v Speaker 1>connection and from Oklahoma Wesleyan University, we have professor Sandy Lynn. Sandy,

7
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:22.719
<v Speaker 1>how are you today?

8
00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:26.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing well. Thank you so much for having me.

9
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:29.719
<v Speaker 1>Boy, I tell you what, We've got quite a panel

10
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:33.960
<v Speaker 1>coming up here. We have a free community event. It's

11
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:36.759
<v Speaker 1>tell us a little bit about it. This is something

12
00:00:36.799 --> 00:00:38.079
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of new to some people.

13
00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:44.079
<v Speaker 2>Sure. We have this event next Tuesday night on the

14
00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:48.719
<v Speaker 2>campus of Oklahoma Westlands and we've called it Unlocking the

15
00:00:48.759 --> 00:00:54.359
<v Speaker 2>Power of Emotional Intelligence. The Yeah, some people may or

16
00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:58.280
<v Speaker 2>may not know what emotional intelligence is, and we are

17
00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:00.840
<v Speaker 2>here to help people understand and it and why it's

18
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:01.520
<v Speaker 2>so important.

19
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:07.359
<v Speaker 1>Now with emotional intelligence, I think everyone knows what emotions

20
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:12.719
<v Speaker 1>are and they know what intelligence is, but putting them together, well,

21
00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:16.599
<v Speaker 1>you've got a little bit of something going on here. Now.

22
00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:21.640
<v Speaker 1>I pretty much understand this because this kind of brings

23
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:23.799
<v Speaker 1>you into a new level and if you're able to

24
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:27.920
<v Speaker 1>kind of marry your smarts with your emotions and work

25
00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:30.280
<v Speaker 1>in a positive direction. You're going to be doing some

26
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:31.640
<v Speaker 1>pretty good things.

27
00:01:32.359 --> 00:01:39.200
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely. Yes. Kind of a general working definition for emotional intelligence,

28
00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:44.760
<v Speaker 2>it's the ability to recognize, understand, and manage your own

29
00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:50.519
<v Speaker 2>emotions while also recognizing and responding appropriately to the emotions

30
00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:51.480
<v Speaker 2>of other people.

31
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:57.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think I'm a father of seven. That was

32
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>one of those things I had to develop because, you know,

33
00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:05.400
<v Speaker 1>because it's one of those things where you're around a

34
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:07.159
<v Speaker 1>whole lot of different people, a whole lot of different

35
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:09.680
<v Speaker 1>things in the mix, and you've got to be able

36
00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:12.879
<v Speaker 1>to recognize a lot of things, and especially about oneself.

37
00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:16.960
<v Speaker 1>And when we unlock this power here, it becomes something

38
00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:19.879
<v Speaker 1>very very important. And I think that it's more than

39
00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:26.199
<v Speaker 1>just something for parents, it's for everyone. People you work with,

40
00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:30.199
<v Speaker 1>anyone can really use some information on this.

41
00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:37.000
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I would agree with that. I work primarily my

42
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:40.199
<v Speaker 2>students are in the school of business, but I tell them,

43
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:43.280
<v Speaker 2>and I tell everyone I meet, this isn't a just

44
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:48.080
<v Speaker 2>a business issue or a business concept. This is just

45
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:51.439
<v Speaker 2>everyday life, you know, getting along with people, being able

46
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:55.599
<v Speaker 2>to kind of read the room. Yeah, that's kind of

47
00:02:55.639 --> 00:03:00.039
<v Speaker 2>the external part, but also really recognizing what's going on

48
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:00.639
<v Speaker 2>with them.

49
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:05.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, you bring this up in business. I've been

50
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:07.479
<v Speaker 1>on this earth maybe a little too long if you

51
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:09.360
<v Speaker 1>ask some people. But it used to be the boss

52
00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:11.919
<v Speaker 1>was the loudest person in the room. That's not the

53
00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:15.800
<v Speaker 1>case anymore. It's usually the one who's most in control

54
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:18.840
<v Speaker 1>of his or her emotions and the one who listens

55
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:22.840
<v Speaker 1>probably a little bit better than the rest, right.

56
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:26.479
<v Speaker 2>And that's so important in any realm. You know, I

57
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:30.639
<v Speaker 2>come from before I started working in higher ed, I

58
00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:35.120
<v Speaker 2>was from the nonprofit world with experience and in churches

59
00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:40.319
<v Speaker 2>in ministry. So that's my background. Thankfully. For our event,

60
00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:43.800
<v Speaker 2>we're going to pull in other professors from the School

61
00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:47.639
<v Speaker 2>of Business who have varied in assort of backgrounds that

62
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:52.159
<v Speaker 2>they're going to share their experiences about why emotional intelligence

63
00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:55.840
<v Speaker 2>is so important in all of the realms. You know

64
00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:56.879
<v Speaker 2>that we'll discuss.

65
00:03:57.199 --> 00:04:01.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, I see the lineup. We have doctor Stacy Duke.

66
00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:05.319
<v Speaker 1>We also have a Professor Jason You see, we have yourself,

67
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:12.639
<v Speaker 1>Professor Sandy Lynn mc, doctor Wendell Weaver, also Professor Jana Russell.

68
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:16.319
<v Speaker 1>And these people come from all different walks, all different

69
00:04:16.920 --> 00:04:18.079
<v Speaker 1>professional realms.

70
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:22.759
<v Speaker 2>Yes we have, and I work with amazing people at

71
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:26.279
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma Wesleyan. I'm so thrilled that will be up there

72
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:29.439
<v Speaker 2>together because we have so much to contribute, we have

73
00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:33.279
<v Speaker 2>so much to share with all the different walks of life.

74
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:36.879
<v Speaker 1>When did this become a thing? I mean, I know

75
00:04:36.959 --> 00:04:40.120
<v Speaker 1>it's always been something, but somebody actually put a name

76
00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:42.040
<v Speaker 1>to it, right.

77
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:46.800
<v Speaker 2>Daniel Goleman, he is a psychologist and an author. In

78
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:53.279
<v Speaker 2>the late nineties, he wrote this article talking about why

79
00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:59.199
<v Speaker 2>e Q emotional quotient. Right, that's another name for emotional intelligence,

80
00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:04.519
<v Speaker 2>but why eq Q is more important than IQ. So

81
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:08.720
<v Speaker 2>he got the name the father of emotional intelligence pretty

82
00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:12.439
<v Speaker 2>much from that article and his numerous books.

83
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:15.560
<v Speaker 1>That's really amazing. I remember living in Florida in the

84
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:18.439
<v Speaker 1>early two thousands and I was speaking with one of

85
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:21.000
<v Speaker 1>the superintendents of school down there in the central part

86
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:25.759
<v Speaker 1>of Florida, and they were talking about moving these concepts

87
00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:29.439
<v Speaker 1>into the teaching realm at the public schools. And they

88
00:05:29.639 --> 00:05:32.360
<v Speaker 1>figured if they got a handle on this really early

89
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:38.040
<v Speaker 1>with the youngsters, they would be more prepared to learn,

90
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:43.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, more entirely instead of just you know, being

91
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:48.360
<v Speaker 1>taught ABCD and one, two, three, they would be able

92
00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:51.720
<v Speaker 1>to really put this together and become better people as

93
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:54.439
<v Speaker 1>well as better pupils.

94
00:05:54.959 --> 00:05:59.360
<v Speaker 2>Right right, there is a big push for younger ages

95
00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:03.439
<v Speaker 2>for it's called social emotional learning. Yeah, that's you know

96
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:06.920
<v Speaker 2>some of that in the in the grade school, you know,

97
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:11.040
<v Speaker 2>middle school, high school. At Oklahoma Wesleyan, I'm so thankful

98
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:15.959
<v Speaker 2>I get to teach two different emotional intelligence classes. We

99
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:19.639
<v Speaker 2>have one for freshmen in the School of Business that

100
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:24.480
<v Speaker 2>really helps their transition into college. You know, there's all

101
00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:27.480
<v Speaker 2>the fields, there's all the things when you're leaving home

102
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:31.560
<v Speaker 2>and going to college. And then I get to teach

103
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:36.279
<v Speaker 2>an upper division like for juniors and seniors about really

104
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:38.839
<v Speaker 2>the focuses emotional intelligence in the workplace.

105
00:06:39.959 --> 00:06:43.040
<v Speaker 1>This is really going to be a dynamic presentation and

106
00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:46.000
<v Speaker 1>it's free to the community. Once again. It's going to

107
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:48.519
<v Speaker 1>be next Tuesday, that's.

108
00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:52.399
<v Speaker 2>Correct, at six thirty.

109
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:54.879
<v Speaker 1>And we're we're on campus. Are we going to bed.

110
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:58.439
<v Speaker 2>It's in Lion Hall right as you come into campus.

111
00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:01.800
<v Speaker 2>It's that first building. Can't miss it. It'll be it right,

112
00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:04.160
<v Speaker 2>you can't miss it. It'll be at six thirty and

113
00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:06.920
<v Speaker 2>we would really love to have everyone join us.

114
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:10.199
<v Speaker 1>You know, when the more folks learn about this and

115
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:14.360
<v Speaker 1>they kind of get over the name EQ or EI,

116
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:17.319
<v Speaker 1>whatever you want to go through it. You're going to

117
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:20.040
<v Speaker 1>find that once you really get into this and really

118
00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:24.920
<v Speaker 1>start learning more about this, frustration levels amongst folks kind

119
00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:26.439
<v Speaker 1>of go down considerably.

120
00:07:27.319 --> 00:07:32.560
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely absolutely. It's it's I call it people skills, you know,

121
00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:35.279
<v Speaker 2>just learning to really get along with people a lot better.

122
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:40.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh righty, Well, once again we are speaking with Professor

123
00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:44.319
<v Speaker 1>Sandy Lynn and coming up on Tuesday night six thirty

124
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.839
<v Speaker 1>at Lion Hall. This will be the free community event

125
00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:51.879
<v Speaker 1>on how you can discover how emotional intelligence or EQ

126
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:56.360
<v Speaker 1>can transform your personal and professional success. And it's a

127
00:07:56.360 --> 00:08:00.279
<v Speaker 1>great big panel discussion with doctor Stacey Duke, also Sir

00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:10.680
<v Speaker 1>a big who's who up there? Oh?

131
00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:13.560
<v Speaker 2>We do? Oh, you don't get any better than this crew.

132
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:18.839
<v Speaker 2>I'm excited to join with them. I'll open it up

133
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:21.800
<v Speaker 2>and give a little teaching about what emotional intelligence is

134
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:24.839
<v Speaker 2>and then they'll take it away with all how to

135
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:26.720
<v Speaker 2>apply it in different areas.

136
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Wow, you get to set the stage for it all.

137
00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:30.120
<v Speaker 1>That's pretty dark cool.

138
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I love it. This is a big passion of mine.

139
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:38.159
<v Speaker 2>I just told my class this week. It's something that

140
00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:41.759
<v Speaker 2>I was very much interested in and never had the

141
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:46.360
<v Speaker 2>words to describe what it was in getting along with people.

142
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:51.159
<v Speaker 2>And then I actually took a class at at Oklahoma

143
00:08:51.159 --> 00:08:54.480
<v Speaker 2>wesleyand with one of my master's degrees and learned all

144
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.000
<v Speaker 2>about emotional intelligence. And that sent me on a path

145
00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:02.080
<v Speaker 2>to be certified and to learn everything that I could

146
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:05.600
<v Speaker 2>possibly learn about it. So I'm thrilled to share what

147
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:05.960
<v Speaker 2>I know.

148
00:09:06.720 --> 00:09:08.759
<v Speaker 1>Well right now, you got me excited to learn a

149
00:09:08.799 --> 00:09:10.679
<v Speaker 1>little bit more about it. Imagine we've got a few

150
00:09:10.679 --> 00:09:13.480
<v Speaker 1>folks in the audience feeling the same way. I want

151
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:15.519
<v Speaker 1>to thank you. I want to thank you very much,
