scenario*****
Corollary Marketing is a leadership development company known for its EI training programs. Alliah Company’s leadership recently hired Corollary to conduct emotional intelligence training for Alliah’s employees. Alliah Company recently received a rating of 10/100 on the A–Z List of Emotionally Intelligent Companies.
Company leadership is very concerned that this low rating could significantly impact its market share, access to talent, and customer satisfaction. This is especially concerning since Alliah revised its mission, ethics, and corporate social responsibility statements this year.
Mission Statement: Alliah Company will provide the most innovative products designed by the best and brightest talent in the technology industry.
Ethics Statement: Alliah Company is committed to ensuring that all employees, suppliers, contractors, and any other entities engaged in business with Alliah will do the right thing for stakeholders.
Corporate Social Responsibility Statement: Alliah Company is committed to reducing the environmental impact of the business.
In addition to revising its mission, ethics, and corporate social responsibility statements, Alliah’s leadership wants to create an innovative culture that approaches all ideas as possible customer solutions that could create the next profitable approach to market growth.
Employees are not surprised by Alliah’s rating of 10/100 on the A–Z List of Emotionally Intelligent Companies. In recent communications with company leadership, the human resources team has advised the leadership to consider certain best practices.
Understanding that employees are valuable not just for their ideas that could lead to profits but as individuals who are valuable on their own merits, can improve morale.
Increasing the diversity of the company’s employees, suppliers, and contractors could better reflect the customers that purchase Alliah’s products.
Reducing resistance to allowing employees to work remotely requires reconsidering expressed concerns over not being able to manage employees’ productivity if they work outside of the office.
Changing the way employees communicate with leadership from a chain of command approach of working through managers to having avenues for meeting with leadership could open communication channels and increase trust.
Corollary’s EI training session will be coordinated by the employees’ managers, and company leadership will not be in attendance. The leadership is expecting that the result of the training will be a move towards their desire for a culture of innovation, and that the next year’s rating on the A–Z List of Emotionally Intelligent Companies will be significantly higher.

B. Apply either the research of Peter Salovey and John D. Mayer or Daniel Goleman to explain two ways you can improve your intrapersonal areas of opportunity, self-awareness, and self-management from your GEIT results.
C. Describe two EI communication techniques that can improve your interpersonal relationship areas of opportunity, social awareness, and relationship management from the GEIT results.
D. Acknowledge sources, using in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.
E. Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission.

A first step in this project is to write a proposal for your book. Utilize the knowledge gained throughout this course to conceptualize a book intended for children between the ages of 3-8 (you should narrow the age range per your preference). The topic of the book must be related to course content and should be specific. Do some of your own research (go to a library, conduct internet searches, talk to children you may know).
Write a 1-page (250 words minimum) proposal that describes the general idea of your book. Do you have a tentative title? Who is your target audience? How will your book be illustrated?
