Improve Emotional Intelligence by Taking Constructive Criticism

Article Category: Leadership

Author Name: Douglas E. Noll

Emotional intelligence can be improved by learning to take constructive criticism. If you�re having trouble taking any kind of critique, constructive or otherwise, then this will be a big benefit to you.
It is natural for anyone to immediately act defensively when someone is dishing out criticisms in the heat of the moment. However, not all criticism is actually bad. In fact some of them may potentially be beneficial for you.
So, how do you get over the initial negative emotions that come with it? Here�s a simple step by step plan that might help you. Doing so can also give your emotional intelligence a big boost.

1. Stop Whatever Reaction You�re Making
It will take some practice to learn how to stop that reactive quip or dismissive facial reaction. After all, reacting to things come rather quickly to us human beings.
Make the effort and practice stopping yourself from reacting to everything. You can even practice your collected Poker Face in front of the mirror just to give you an idea what you look like in front of other people.
Remember that it only takes a second to stop your instant reaction to the person talking.

2. Take a Moment to Evaluate the Feedback
Now that you have taken that split second to stop yourself, the next step is to take a very short moment to listen and categorize the feedback you�re receiving. Note that some critiques are constructive, while others are not.
If you find that whatever the person is saying is nothing more than tongue lashings that you can dismiss, you can make a decision right then and there to walk away from that unproductive conversation or stop the other person and give a short spiel.
However, if the feedback is constructive, then you should take the time to analyze what is being said. Choosing this option will help you improve your emotional intelligence.

3. Listen to Understand
A lot of people today sit back and listen only because they�re looking for a comeback to the other person. People aren�t really communicating that way. In such as situation, two people are talking but no one is communicating.
Switch to this habit: listen so you can understand. It doesn�t necessarily mean that you�re agreeing with the other person. What you�re doing is the mature thing�trying to understand the other person�s point of view.

4. Ask Questions to Start a Conversation
Don�t expect to understand everything in one go . The next step is to ask clarifying questions. Ask questions to try and understand�not to provoke or challenge the other person�s observations.
The goal is not to defend yourself�you don�t need to. You may want to ask about the following:
Examples that will help you understand the issues being discussed
Concrete solutions that can help resolve problems
Determine whether it is an isolated issue or not
Acknowledge the facts (only the facts)

Having the courage and patience to take constructive criticism will boost your emotional intelligence. Learn to embrace feedback and grow from these moments.
