The current organizational members are: American Express, the HayGroup, Johnson & Johnson, and the Federal Office of Personnel Management. The following projects and partnerships have been established by the Consortium. Model Programs Project: One of the first projects was to identify empirically-supported models of best practice for developing emotional intelligence. To date, the consortium has identified 15 such models. Descriptions of the model programs identified by the Consortium are listed on this website. The Consortium continues to be interested in programs that are intended to promote at least one of the five dimensions of emotional intelligence described by Daniel Goleman in his books, Emotional Intelligence and Working with Emotional Intelligence. The five dimensions are self-monitoring, self-regulation, self-motivation, empathy, and social skills. In looking for models, the consortium is interested in not only specific programs but also whole organizations -- profit and nonprofit -- that value the nurturing of social and emotional competence.

Practice Guidelines: Another project of the Consortium was to develop a set of practice guidelines for organizations that want to excel in this area. These guidelines are based on an exhaustive review of the research on training and development in organizations, behavior change, and social and emotional learning. A technical report describing the research studies on which the guidelines are based also can be accessed through this web page.

Research Partnerships: Another goal of the Consortium is to stimulate intellectual inquiry and research partnerships focusing on the measurement and promotion of emotional intelligence in organizations. During the last few years we have expanded the Consortium to include corporate and organizational members as well as individual researchers. Together, they have formed partnerships and charted new territory in the application of emotional intelligence to organizations. www.eiconsortium.org

KIN may be seen as a global social action network. It evolved from a tradition of social systems research and social biology. It is also informed by ancient practices and ideas. KIN is grounded on reflection and study of daily experiences of individuals working together. A few quotes from active participants in KIN: “Knowledge is the coordination of action.” “Innovation and good work happens when people come together.” “When others see something good happening, they may begin to do it, yet often hidden from the hierarchy.”
